Programs of the Year
The Executive Director, UMHHC, established a recognition process for noteworthy programs beginning in 1983. Meritorious programs were nominated and selected by the Hospitals' Senior Management Team on an annual basis each fall. Programs receiving "Program of the Year" status are formally recognized at the Administrative Forum meeting in December; and, at the Hospitals and Health Centers Executive Board meeting usually in January and/or February.
Programs that have received "Program of the Year" distinction are:
- 1983 Survival Flight
