THE VALUED VOICE

On Dec. 16, Children’s Wisconsin was awarded the Wisconsin Hospital Association (WHA) 100th Anniversary Values Award by WHA President and CEO Eric Borgerding.
 
Borgerding acknowledged the outstanding application that Children’s Wisconsin submitted. A notable element he highlighted was the health system’s Our Family Partners Program.

This program exemplifies communication and transparency so that parents and caregivers can openly and safely discuss their experiences and make suggestions for improvement, which ultimately improves care,” said Borgerding.
 
Borgerding also mentioned the tremendous advocacy work that Children’s Wisconsin does. “The employees, volunteers, board members and patient families who are a part of the Children’s Action Network show tremendous commitment to influencing positive change. WHA and Children’s both share this core value of advocacy, which makes our partnership strong,” he said.
 
Congratulations to Children’s Wisconsin, to its leadership and frontline staff and to its entire team for receiving this very well-deserved recognition and honor.
