The Friday Five – National Health Center Week

Aug 10, 2018 | Posted by Annmarie Budniak | Celebrations - Awareness, HIT Feed |

Follow and join the conversation with #NHCW18 and #CHCSuperPower.

For over fifty years America’s Health Centers have been bringing their services to all people, regardless of their ability to pay or insurance status, and in today’s healthcare climate that mission is more important than ever. According to the National Association of Community Health Centers (@NACHC), health centers serve 27 million patients, a number that continues to grow along with the demand for affordable primary care. In support of National Health Centers Week, August 12th – 18th, our Friday Five takes a look at what health centers have to offer and how you can participate in the week’s events.

We hope you will join us in celebrating Community Health Centers during National Health Center Week 2018 August 12-18 https://t.co/CoUFGBJahZ #NHCW18 @NACHC @HCAdvocacy #valueCHCs pic.twitter.com/vtfLtvDOXV

Conversations on Healthcare
Weekdays at 5:00 pm ET
New to HealthcareNOW Radio, Conversations on Health Care® is a radio show about reform and innovation in the health care system. Each week, hosts Mark Masselli and Margaret Flinter interview a thought leader from the realm of health policy, health innovation, health technology and global health. FactCheck.org’s Managing Editor Lori Robertson exposes false claims about health policy in the public domain and we end with a Bright Idea that’s improving health and well being in every day lives. Conversations is recorded at WESU at Wesleyan University, and is underwritten by Community Health Center, Inc., a leading independent, non-profit healthcare provider in the state of Connecticut, begun in 1972 and co-founded by Mark Masselli.

Focus Days
In order to help spread the word and give organizations across the country some connection, NHCW provides a theme for the event overall and for each day as well. This year’s theme is Celebrating Health Centers: Home of America’s Health Care Heroes and the focus for each day of NHCW 2018 is listed below:

  • Sunday, 8/12: Legislative Appreciation Day
  • Monday, 8/13: Honoring Health Center Heroes
  • Tuesday, 8/14: Public Housing Health Centers Day
  • Wednesday, 8/15: Healthcare for the Homeless Day
  • Thursday, 8/16: Agricultural Worker Health Day
  • Friday, 8/17: Patient Appreciation Day
  • Saturday, 8/18: Children’s Health Day

2018 Picture & Video Contests
Each year, hundreds of Health Center Advocates submit their pictures and videos to celebrate the amazing work their Health Center does! The NHCW Picture & Video Contest is an opportunity to use your creativity to garner some national attention for your Health Center.
