Patient safety takes commitment from every corner of a hospital, and we always enjoy seeing hospitals recognize the people behind that work through their Hospital Safety Grade materials. Thank you for sharing and tagging us in your celebrations!

The Leapfrog staff recreated one of the most recognizable celebration props hospitals receive alongside their materials: the iconic A display.

From team photos to community celebrations, we love seeing how hospitals use these materials to spotlight their ongoing focus on safer patient care.
