Protecting our colleagues
- 1.2 billion pieces of PPE distributed to colleagues in 2021 to protect our caregivers.
- We’re here to support our nurses, physicians and colleagues so they can continue to provide high-quality, patient-centered care. Existing and expanded mental wellness programs include Nurse Care, a free and confidential service that gives HCA Healthcare hospital-based nurses 24/7 remote access to licensed psychologists, social workers and marriage and family therapists, and Optum, a partnership that offers colleagues and members of their household free counseling sessions.
Improving patient care
- As a learning health system, we create tools that transform vast amounts of patient data into systems that improve patient care.
- HCA Healthcare treated more than 160,000 COVID-19 inpatients in 2021 and over 271,000 total from February 2020 to December 2021 — more than any other health system in the country.
Training the next generation of the healthcare workforce
- Galen College of Nursing joined HCA Healthcare in 2020, bringing together two leading nursing organizations and creating the country's largest academic practice partnership to increase access to education and provide nursing career development opportunities that will positively impact patient care.
- HCA Healthcare is the nation’s largest graduate medical education (GME) sponsor with 337 programs across 60 teaching hospitals and more than 5,429 residents and fellows.
Political participation and related activities
Consistent with U.S. federal and state laws, we participate in the political giving process through contributions from the HCA Healthcare Good Government Fund and HCA state PACs. HCA Healthcare will publish and archive semi-annual reports on our website of political contributions and related activities.
Supporting our communities
Combining both its operations and capital investment, the economic impact of HCA Healthcare in 2019 is estimated to have been $102.2 billion, which supported 645,281 jobs in the United States.
