Eisenhower Health Named 2025 Leader in Caring for People Living with Diabetes

Eisenhower Health has been named as a 2025 Recognized Leader in Caring for People Living with Diabetes by The Leapfrog Group and the American Diabetes Association (ADA). Only 36 hospitals nationwide received this designation, highlighting Eisenhower’s strong commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of hospitalized patients living with diabetes.

“At Eisenhower Health, we understand the added risks faced by patients living with diabetes,” says Eric Leroux, MD, Vice President and Chief Quality Officer. “This designation affirms our team’s dedication to delivering safe, evidence-based, and compassionate care for every patient, every time.”

Prioritizing Safety and Quality for Diabetes Patients

The program evaluates hospitals on care provided during admission, hospital stay, and after discharge, combining the ADA’s Standards of Care in Diabetes with Leapfrog’s nationally respected safety benchmarks. People with diabetes face higher risks of complications, infections, and preventable harm while hospitalized, making this recognition especially meaningful.

Eisenhower Health earn this designation by implementing advanced protocols, including:

  • Continuous blood glucose monitoring
  • Hypoglycemia prevention measures
  • Tailored pre-surgical planning
  • Comprehensive discharge planning for high-risk patients
