Dignity’s East Valley hospitals earn recognition

Dignity Health Chandler Regional and Mercy Gilbert medical centers have been nationally recognized for their dedication to patient safety and specialty care in two recent rankings.

The two hospitals earned “A” ratings by The Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit watchdog that evaluates how well hospitals across the country perform in more than 30 patient safety performance measures, in its fall 2024 survey.

“Patient safety is and has always been a top priority for our hospitals, and we are very proud of our team members who remain committed to the health and wellbeing of our patients,” Mark Slyter, president and CEO of Dignity Health East Valley, said in a release.

In addition to Leapfrog’s patient safety recognition, Mercy Gilbert has also been nationally commended as a leader in cardiology by Healthgrades, a company that provides information about hospital and health care providers to help patients make decisions regarding their care.

Healthgrades ranked Mercy Gilbert in the top 10 percent of the nation’s hospitals for cardiology, and awarded the hospital a five-star recognition for its treatment of heart failure in its 2025 list.
