Health Beyond the Bedside
The MHA works with partners and stakeholders to improve health in ways that go beyond delivering services to patients who are ill or injured. Over the years, the MHA has worked with its members to address the nutrition of hospital food, remove smoking and tobacco use from hospital campuses, educate the small business community about hospital wellness offerings, and ensure medical care is being delivered in an environmentally friendly way.
