For many patients, the journey to care begins before they ever reach the hospital.

From responding to emergencies to helping patients reach the care they need, first responders play an essential role in supporting the health and safety of our communities.

On National First Responders Day, MEDHOST recognizes the EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, law enforcement officers, and emergency response teams who work alongside hospitals to help make care possible.

Thank you for the difference you make in the communities you serve.

The Rural Health Transformation Program is moving from awards into implementation—and technology modernization is part of the conversation in many states.

Our latest article explores several considerations that may help shape those technology discussions.

Some of the most important work behind healthcare technology happens where customers rarely see it.

For Sandy Workman, Director of IBM i and Storage Engineering at MEDHOST, that means helping shape the infrastructure behind MEDHOST solutions with a focus on reliability, flexibility, and long-term performance.

In this People Behind the Technology conversation, Sandy shares what her team has learned through its work with MEDHOST PowerCloud with SVC, how collaboration with IBM has influenced that work, and what it ultimately means for customers.

The article also includes IBM’s perspective on the validated design, the collaboration with MEDHOST, and the broader interest it is generating.

Sandy will bring some of those experiences to the IBM TechXchange stage later this month.

Twenty-five years have passed since September 11, 2001, but the significance of that day has not faded.

We remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the courage and selflessness shown in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

As a new generation grows up knowing September 11 through the stories and memories of others, we continue to honor those who were lost and ensure the meaning of that day is not forgotten.

Care close to home depends on people across the hospital showing up for their communities every day—including holidays.

Whether caring directly for patients or supporting the many operations that make that care possible, hospital teams play an essential role in keeping care available.

Today, we recognize the time, talent, and dedication behind that work.

Thank you from all of us at MEDHOST.
