The safest year on record was 2017, at a TCR of 3.3, while 2023 saw the highest rate, at 6.5, a spread of 3.3 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a wide swing relative to the establishment's overall rate, worth checking the year-by-year table below for whether a single severe year is driving the average, rather than a sustained trend.
Summed across those 2 reporting years, Centinela Hospital Medical Center recorded 86 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 2-year trend above alongside establishment size, since a larger workforce naturally accumulates more raw incidents even at a lower per-100-worker rate.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2023)
What is the DART rate formula?
DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) is computed by OSHA as incidents × 200,000 ÷ hours worked. The 200,000-hour denominator equals roughly 100 full-time workers, which lets establishments of very different sizes be compared directly.
30 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 1,653,355 hours worked = 3.63 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
