With the distinct challenges facing rural hospitals and health systems, access to critical services — like maternal health care and emergency medical services — is at risk. In this Leadership Dialogue Series podcast, John Haupert, president and CEO of Atlanta-based Grady Health System and the 2023 Chair of AHA’s Board, is joined by Jennifer Havens, CEO of UnityPoint Health – Grinnell Regional Medical Center, a 49-bed hospital serving several counties in Iowa. The two health care leaders discuss how GRMC has “tried to turn lemons into lemonade” to address challenges and improve care delivery. Havens also discusses the benefits of the hospital’s affiliation with UnityPoint Health, including increasing health care access in the community.
