Spokane Hospitals vs Medicare statistics

Via this post from the Sunlight Foundation - http://reporting.sunlightfoundation.com/2011/medical-errors-2/ - I thought I'd see how the Spokane hospitals stack up in screwing up. I filtered each of the datasets to Spokane and sorted by name, not rate.  Read the article for any disclaimers on the content of the data.

Falls and Trauma

Blood Infections

Urinary tract infections

Bed Sores

Poor Glycemic Control

Foreign objects left in body

Our hospitals each reported zero Air Embolisms and Wrong blood type.
