NOVA Awards. Building healthier communities.
The following profiles of this year's winners of the second annual NOVA Awards, sponsored by the American Hospital Association and Hospitals & Health Networks magazine, exemplify humanity, which is what health care is all about. The winners all set out to boost the health and well-being of their communities. That frequently means expanding the traditional hospital mission to ensure that disadvantaged and underserved people not only get good health care, but also safer streets, nutritious food, a decent place to live, and a future for their children. They're all part of a community's ecology. None of these projects is finished. But you have to start somewhere to get somewhere else.
