Guest Column: Thank You for Supporting BHS
 |
Reflecting on the past year, I am proud of the broad range of achievements that were made possible by the combined efforts of the BHS family — from adopting our Community Code of Conduct to provide a safe and healing care environment for all, to expanding access to care in working to reopen North Adams Regional Hospital, to being named Employer of the Year by the Massachusetts Business Roundtable/Workforce Solutions Group for our efforts to build the health-care workforce of the future.
These milestones are a testament to the incredible dedication of our employees and the importance of partnering with residents and organizations across the region to achieve shared goals for community well-being.
We know that our journey to advancing a healthier community is ongoing and that there are always ways we can improve. In the year ahead, I'm looking forward to tackling more projects that will support positive patient experiences at all of our facilities, continuing to develop a skilled local workforce, and partnering even more closely with our patients and our community organizations to help identify health-related social needs and reduce barriers to wellness.
On behalf of Berkshire Health Systems leadership, I would like to share our heartfelt gratitude to our BHS team for all that they do to advance the well-being of our community day after day, and our warmest wishes to the whole Berkshire community for a safe holiday season and a healthy new year.
Darlene Rodowicz is president and CEO of Berkshire Health Systems.
