Loma Linda University Medical Center and East Campus hospitals received their 13th and 14th consecutive “A” safety ratings, respectively, and Loma Linda University Medical Center-Murrieta received its third consecutive “A” from the Leapfrog Group for Spring 2025.

The Leapfrog Safety Grades, updated twice annually in the spring and fall, recognize Loma Linda University Health’s achievements in protecting patients from preventable harm and error in the hospital.

“At Loma Linda University Health, our consistent achievement of nationally recognized quality indicators reflects the intentional commitment to excellence demonstrated by every member of our team,” said Anthony Hilliard, MD, FACC, CEO of Loma Linda University Health Hospitals. “These Leapfrog awards are a testament to our enduring legacy of prioritizing patient safety and delivering exceptional care.”

The Leapfrog Group, an independent national watchdog organization, assigns an “A,” “B,” “C,” “D,” or “F” safety grades to general hospitals across the country based on over thirty national performance measures reflecting errors, accidents, injuries, and infections, as well as systems hospitals have in place to prevent harm.

The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade is the only hospital ratings program based exclusively on hospital prevention of medical errors and patient harm. The organization’s grading system is peer-reviewed, fully transparent, and accessible to the public.
