Majority Of Hudson Valley Hospitals Get 'C' Rating

A new report has been published that grades Hudson Valley hospitals.

Leapfrog recently published their ratings of hospitals all over the country. Within the Hudson Valley, they rated 14 different hospitals. To determine the grades, Leapfrog considers 28 different measures of publicly available hospital safety data. From there, they analyze the data and determine how factors will be weighted based on evidence, opportunity for improvement, and impact. They also use information from secondary sources to supplement any missing data to give hospitals as much credit as possible.

Here are the hospitals in the Hudson Valley that Leapfrog looked at, and their grade:
