  • Rising to the Occasion: JHCP’s COVID-19 Response

    The COVID-19 pandemic changed the way we all live and work. In the latter half of JHCP's fiscal year 2020, COVID-19 shifted priorities for employees across the organization as they responded to the public health crisis. Some refocused their efforts to bolster administrative support for practices, some transformed workflows that would change the way care is delivered, while some donned personal protective equipment (PPE) on the frontlines and dedicated themselves to the health and safety of patients in a whole new way. Read more about JHCP's response to the COVID-19 pandemic in FY20 here.
