Where are Leapfrog's 11 'F' hospitals?

Four California hospitals made the list of 11 nationwide to receive an "F" grade in The Leapfrog Group's fall safety ratings released Nov. 6. New York is the state with the second most on the short list with two hospitals receiving an "F" grade. 

Twice a year, the nonprofit healthcare watchdog organization publishes a letter grade for 3,000 hospitals on how well they prevent medical errors, accidents and infections.  

Among the 3,000 hospitals evaluated nationwide, fewer than 1 percent received an "F".

Here are this fall's 11 "F" graded hospitals:
