Garden Grove Hospital Recognized with Clinical Achievements in Orthopedic & Critical Care
Garden Grove, CA – October XX, 2024 – Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center announced today that it has achieved numerous five-star ratings for specialty care from Healthgrades. Garden Grove Hospital was rated five stars for Critical Care and Orthopedic procedures and conditions, including Hip Fracture Treatment and Diabetic Emergencies. These achievements reflect Garden Grove’s commitment to consistently delivering the best care possible and place the organization in the upper echelon of hospitals for specialty care nationwide.
“At Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center, our commitment to delivering outstanding orthopedic and critical care is at the heart of everything we do. These recognitions reflect the dedication of our skilled physicians and staff, who continually strive to provide exceptional care and improve patient outcomes,” states Dan Brothman, CEO of Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center. “By combining technology with compassionate, patient-centered care, we are proud to be recognized as a leader in these critical areas. We will continue ensuring our community receives the best care possible when they need it most.”
Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center’s achievements are based solely on what matters most: patient outcomes. As part of its 2025 hospital assessment, Healthgrades evaluated risk-adjusted mortality and complication rates for over 30 of the most common conditions and procedures at approximately 4,500 hospitals nationwide to determine the top performers in specialty care. By offering easy access to objective performance measures, Healthgrades helps consumers find and select a hospital that excels in providing the care they need.
In addition, Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center recently received the American Heart Association’s Target: Stroke Honor Roll Elite award. To qualify for this recognition, hospitals must meet specific criteria that reduce the time between an eligible patient’s arrival at the hospital and treatment with thrombolytic therapy. In addition, Garden Grove Hospital received the American Heart Association’s Target: Type 2 Diabetes™ Honor Roll award. Target: Type 2 Diabetes aims to ensure patients with Type 2 diabetes, who might be at higher risk for complications, receive the most up-to-date, evidence-based care when hospitalized due to stroke.
As variation in performance among hospitals continues to grow, it is increasingly important for consumers to seek care at top-rated programs. Healthgrades’ 2025 analysis revealed that if all hospitals as a group performed similarly to five-star hospitals during the 2021-2023 study period, on average, 224,958 lives could potentially have been saved and 141,692 complications could potentially have been avoided.*
“Healthgrades commends Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center for their clear commitment to delivering consistently superior patient outcomes in critical service areas, including its Orthopedic and Critical Care achievements,” said Brad Bowman, MD, chief medical officer and head of data science at Healthgrades. “Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center’s leadership, expertise, and unwavering dedication to clinical excellence set a high mark for specialty care in [State] and nationwide.”
