Celebrating ninth patient safety award in five years 🏆

Via Christi Hospital in Manhattan has earned an “A” Hospital Safety Grade from the Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit focused on patient safety. Leapfrog assigns an "A," "B," "C," "D" or "F" grade to general hospitals across the country based on more than 22 performance measures reflecting accidents, errors, injuries and infections, as well as the systems and protocols hospitals have in place to prevent them.

This is the ninth “A” grade for Via Christi Hospital in Manhattan in the last five years. The hospital previously earned the award in spring and fall 2021, spring 2022, spring and fall 2023, spring and fall 2024, spring 2025, and now fall 2025, reflecting the hospital’s ongoing dedication to patient safety and quality care.

“This recognition by Leapfrog is an acknowledgment of our dedicated caregivers and their steadfast commitment to live out our mission of delivering safe, high quality and compassionate care for all,” said Katie Seay, Board Chair of Via Christi Hospital in Manhattan. “We are proud of our team and the exceptional care they provide for our patients, every single day.”

Leapfrog’s Hospital Safety Grade program is a national rating focused exclusively on hospital safety, preventable medical errors, infections and patient injuries. It is peer-reviewed, transparent and available to the public at no cost, with updated grades published twice annually in fall and spring.

Last week was Forensic Nurses Week, so take a moment to recognize their important work ⬇️

These nurses are important for situations of violence and abuse because they bring special training to treat the trauma associated sexual assault, intimate partner violence, neglect or other intentional injuries.

They also help collect evidence and give testimony that can be used in a court of law to help bring peace and justice to victims. 💜

🫂 We are grateful and thankful to have a dedicated, compassionate and focused team to help protect and heal our community. Thank you for all you do!

🌼 Keely Say, RN, Labor & Delivery at the Birth and Women's Center, has been named a DAISY Foundation award recipient!

The DAISY Award is a nationwide program that recognizes and celebrates nurses who consistently demonstrate excellence through their clinical expertise, extraordinary service, compassionate care, and the trusting relationships they build with staff, patients, and families. This special award highlights nurses who are nominated by patients or colleagues for truly going above and beyond.

She was nominated twice. A patient's family member said: "Our grandchild was born in your beautiful facility. While in labor, the nurse was so attentive, kind, and caring to our family. I appreciate that she was so patient with me. I’m a nurse and I was nervous for our children. She was respectful, allowed me to help with basic care, and calmed my fears. Thank you for all your work!”

Another nomination came from a patient, who felt incredibly supported during a vulnerable time: “I was very scared about my labor process. On the morning that my water broke, Keely was on shift. I feel like she was assigned to me by God. At all points she made me comfortable and helped me deliver a healthy baby. She explained the whole process and was with me like my mom throughout the process. I don’t know if God exists but I saw him in Keely’s form. Honestly I don’t know what to say more about the way she took care of me but all I can remember is she made me trust her and kept up to her word.”

Please join us in congratulating Keely on this award! 👏
