Nurses celebrating quality achievement

It’s report card time and, once again, our South Sacramento Medical Center is at the top of the class

The Leapfrog Group announced its latest round of Safety Grades in November 2024. For the second time this year, our medical center has earned an “A” for safety. This accomplishment is impressive, given less than 30% of the nation’s hospitals received an “A” rating in this reporting period. 

This achievement is a direct reflection of the tireless efforts of our entire team—our dedicated and highly skilled physicians, nurses, managers, and staff. Every day, you contribute to creating a safe, healing environment for our patients and their families. Whether through careful attention to infection prevention, innovative approaches to patient care, or unwavering commitment to our safety protocols, your work makes a difference and saves lives. 

Patient safety is not an easy feat—it requires constant vigilance, collaboration, and a shared commitment to the highest standards. Our “A” grade is a testament to the strength of our team and the culture of excellence we foster together. You have demonstrated that our patients’ well-being comes first, and for that, we are incredibly grateful.

Thank you for your exceptional work and dedication to upholding Kaiser Permanente’s reputation as a leader in safety and quality care. Let’s take a moment to celebrate this accomplishment, reflect on our achievements, and look forward to more successes in the future.
