Ensuring equity & inclusivity for all is our top priority.
As a health care provider, ensuring that equity, diversity and inclusion is embedded in all that we do enables us to provide more personalized care, and better understand and address barriers and factors that impact health outcomes and experiences for patients and families.
Voyce Translation
HHS is piloting Voyce, a new service that provides quick access to real-time interpreters trained in medical terminology. Voyce will allow patients and providers to best understand each other and help create a more equitable and inclusive organization for every person who visits, works for, or receives care at our hospital.
Innovation that transforms.
On June 4, 2022, we launched Epic – a modern system that provides a single personal health record for each patient. Putting all patient health information in one easy-to-access place improves safety and quality of care. It is the largest clinical transformation in the history of HHS.
