Nine months of inspections at Grand View Hospital: January to September
Inspectors visited four times to investigate potential problems at Grand View Hospital in Bucks County.
No problems were identified during on-site state inspections at Grand View Hospital in Sellersville in the first nine months of the year.
Here’s a look at the publicly available details:
Apr. 5: Inspectors came to investigate a complaint but found the hospital was in compliance. Complaint details are not made public when inspectors determine it was unfounded.
May 24: Inspectors came to investigate a complaint but found the hospital was in compliance.
Jun. 3: Inspectors came to investigate a complaint but found the hospital was in compliance.
Sept. 16: Inspectors visited for a special monitoring survey and found the hospital was in compliance.
The Pennsylvania Department of Health routinely inspects hospitals to ensure the facility is safe for patients and that staff are following all safety protocols. Inspectors may also visit when a hospital staff member or patient files a complaint.
Not all safety violations spark an on-site investigation from inspectors. Hospitals are required to self-report the most serious safety violations and often work directly with the state to address them. Complaint details are not made public when inspectors determine it was unfounded.
The Inquirer tracks publicly available hospital reports related to a complaint, special monitoring, and general safety inspections. The Inquirer does not track inspections for new equipment or occupancy surveys, unless problems are identified.
Inspection reports are publicly available online and are released 40 days after the report is completed.
