The 737-800 is not grounded (and never has been). The aircraft type has an excellent safety record. Since 1997 over 5000 have been produced.
The 7378Max is its successor. The aircraft is very similar to the 737-800. One of the differences is the placement (more forward and higher) of the slightly bigger engines. This changed the stability of the aircraft under certain flight conditions causing Boeing to introduce a Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS). The MCAS played a crucial role in two recent crashes of the 737-8MAX, leading to the groundingof the aircraft type.
The 737-800 does not have such a system and is therefore not affected.

Airline tickets often use ICAO type designators, so it might be useful to mention them: 737-800 is B738, 737-8MAX is B38M.
