Health Centers are among the healthcare organizations that Epiphany helps to provide the best workflow solutions for. Health Centers are non-profits that work toward the mission of serving to improve the health of patients in the community in which they live.
What is National Health Center Week
National Health Center Week is the time that is designated annually to recognize and bring awareness to America's Health Centers and the mission that drives them. They provide necessary healthcare in the communities that need them most. Their doors are open to virtually everyone. They not only provide primary care to millions of patients but try to find solutions for the main health concerns within their community.
Why Observe National Health Center Week
The people that work for Health Centers are on the front lines with bleeding hearts of hope and health for all each day. Community health workers wear many more hats than simply assisting with healthcare needs. They have many roles and are heroes of healthcare to people that otherwise have barriers to healthcare. America’s Health Centers and their heroes should be recognized for the great work that they do.
How to Observe National Health Center Week
National Health Center Week in 2018 is Sunday, August 12th through Saturday, August 18th. Each day has its own focus to celebrate, such as Children’s Health Day and Healthcare for the Homeless Day.
