Three Rivers Medical Center Earns ‘A’ Hospital Safety Grade from The Leapfrog Group
Fall 2025 grade highlights hospital’s ongoing commitment to patient safety
LOUISA, KY (March 13, 2026)—Three Rivers Medical Center earned an “A” Hospital Safety Grade from The Leapfrog Group for the Fall 2025 period, an independent national nonprofit watchdog focused on patient safety. Leapfrog assigns an “A,” “B,” “C,” “D” or “F” grade to general hospitals across the country based on over 30 measures of errors, accidents, injuries and infections as well as the systems hospitals have in place to prevent them.
“We’re incredibly proud to achieve an ‘A’ Hospital Safety Grade,” said Greg Kiser, CEO of Three Rivers Medical Center. “Our team is deeply committed to delivering high-quality care close to home, and I couldn’t be prouder of their dedication to maintaining a standard where patient safety and well-being are central to everything we do.”
“Achieving an ‘A’ Hospital Safety Grade reflects enormous dedication to patient safety,” said Leah Binder, president and CEO of The Leapfrog Group. “I extend my congratulations to Three Rivers Medical Center, its leadership, clinicians, staff and volunteers for creating a culture where patients come first.”
The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade stands as the only hospital ratings program focused solely on preventable medical errors, infections and injuries that kill more than 500 patients a day in the United States. This program is peer-reviewed, fully transparent and free to the public. Grades are updated twice annually, in the fall and spring.
Three Rivers Medical Center has also received a CMS 5-star patient rating for hospital cleanliness, reflecting positive feedback from patients about the care environment.
