Best Practices Survey
GRHA is surveying communities across the state to compile a database
reflecting best practices we all can use to improve rural health.
Designed with your time in mind, the components of the brief survey
include who is offering the program, what the program goals are, who
the program serves, why it is offered, the impact it has in the
community/state, and staff contact information.

GRHA Member Makes Announcement
 HEALTH FACILITY PARTNERS - has received
its Women Business Enterprise status, St of TN, and announces its recent
alignment with the National Rural Health Association as a SILVER CORPORATE
SPONSOR. This level of commitment to be
designated as a WBE and to the NRHA organization underlines our belief in the
importance of equality of healthcare to our nation's rural citizens. At HEALTH FACILITY PARTNERS, we bring years
of combined expertise to the challenge of creating safe, healing environments from
rural medical facilities to big complex campuses. We are not simply an architectural, interior
design and facility management firm; we uniquely package those services with
the real-life perspective of day-to-day facility management and operations.
Because we've "been there - done that", we know how funding obstacles frustrate
the goals of all medical facilities. Our goal is to partner with our clients to
maximize every dollar available, whether for capital projects or operating expenses. Visit us at www.healthfp.netor call (423) 899-2996. If you are facing
a dilemma about your facility, call Mike, Tracey, or Andrea for a phone
visit. |
