Coalition releases new 'Hospital Heroes' video

Continuing its focus on “Hospital Heroes,” the Coalition to Protect America’s Health Care yesterday released a new video showing the personal side of health care – the bond between a nurse patient navigator and breast cancer patient she guided through diagnosis, treatment and recovery. The video, the third in a series, also drives home the point that threats to hospital funding could make this kind of personal care harder to deliver. Viewers are invited to send emails to their senators asking them to keep hospitals strong. AHA is a founding member of the coalition, a broad-based group of hospitals, businesses and national, state and local hospital associations dedicated to educating the public and advocating to protect hospitals’ financial viability.
