Since 1952 The Association of Washington Public Hospital Districts (AWPHD) has been the voice for Public Hospital Districts (PHD) across the State of Washington. We are solely focused on the unique role that PHDs serve in communities.
Our partners at @wahospitals.bsky.social hosted a powerful PR roundtable. This roundtable was a validating and energizing experience for both WSHA and AWPHD members, as they shared common challenges and best practices.
