Building Sustainability into Healthcare Management Education
Sustainable Healthcare Systems Require Visionary Leadership
Healthcare administrators are the drivers of change in today’s hospitals and health systems. Providing these leaders with the tools and knowledge to transform their environments is the key to sustainable healthcare systems.
That’s why, since 2017, Canon has teamed up with the Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Management Education (CAHME). By recognizing CAHME-accredited healthcare management programs that emphasize a holistic definition of sustainability, the Canon USA Award is helping to drive a deeper conversation about what success looks like in healthcare administration.
A focus on sustainability has the power to create a ripple effect that impacts financial, social, and environmental outcomes.
By supporting sustainability in healthcare management, Canon is staying true to the Canon corporate philosophy of Kyosei: “all people, regardless of race, religion, or culture, harmoniously living and working together into the future for the common good.”
