Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital received the prestigious recognition of becoming a top children’s hospital for patient safety and quality by The Leapfrog Group. This is the first year Johns Hopkins All Children’s has made the list and is the only pediatric hospital named to the list from the Tampa Bay area.
Each year the national watchdog group recognizes top achievements in health care safety and quality through some of the toughest standards set at U.S. hospitals. While the group considered more than 2,200 hospitals for the award, only 149 top hospitals nationwide are selected as Top Hospitals.
“It is an incredible honor to be named a Leapfrog Top Children’s Hospital,” Angela Green, Ph.D., R.N., CPHQ, FAHA, FAAN, vice president and chief patient safety and quality officer. “Even with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, our amazing team remained laser focused on our mission and our commitment to providing top quality and safe care to children in our community and beyond.”
Selected hospitals rank top among peers on the Leapfrog Hospital Survey, which assesses hospital performance on the highest standards for quality and patient safety. To see the full list of institutions honored as 2021 Top Hospitals, visit LeapfrogGroup.org/TopHospitals.
