National Hospital Week, the nation’s largest health care event, is a celebration of the history, technology and dedicated professionals that make up the health care industry. The national celebration began in 1921 to build a culture of open communication between hospitals and the communities they serve.
“The health care industry plays a major role in the Acadiana economy and it is the heartbeat of our community,†says Buffy Domingue, CEO of LSSH. “As a major service provider in the industry, we have an obligation to ensure the well-being of the people who live and work here.
