Three UCSF Health hospitals received “A” ratings in the spring 2025 Hospital Safety Grades from The Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit watchdog focused on patient safety. Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grades are assigned to nearly 3,000 general acute-care hospitals across the nation twice annually, in the fall and spring.
The prestigious designation was awarded to the UCSF Helen Diller Medical Center at Parnassus Heights, UCSF Medical Center at Mission Bay, and UCSF Health St. Mary’s Hospital. UCSF Health Medical Center at Mission Bay has received an “A” grade for eight rating cycles in a row, and UCSF Helen Diller Medical Center at Parnassus Heights has received an “A” grade for five rating cycles in a row, earning both hospitals Leapfrog’s elite Straight “A” designation.
