The disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on communities of color is a stark reminder of the continuing health disparities that challenge all of us to do better. Unquestionably, racism is a serious public health crisis. IHA and the Illinois hospital community are working together to confront this issue. Learn more about efforts to achieve health equity statewide.

Revitalize your safety culture by attending “The Role of Just Culture and Patient Safety Across the Care Continuum,” held virtually on Oct. 28. The annual MAPS event — open to all IHA members — will engage healthcare leaders and clinicians in critical discussions on enhancing quality and workforce well-being. National and local experts will explore root cause analysis, patient and family perspective, and other key factors to protect patients and staff. 

IHA is working closely with health departments and government officials to ensure Illinois hospitals have the resources and support they need to respond to COVID-19. See our COVID-19 webpage for key resources, government updates, clinical guidance for providers and information from IHA on a range of issues, including federal policy, behavioral health and telehealth.

The pandemic has shown how important hospitals and health systems are to communities across Illinois, with healthcare professionals exhibiting tireless dedication in caring for patients. IHA recognizes their bravery, compassion and extraordinary response to an unprecedented crisis. Witness their efforts in a new video—A Year Like No Other.
