Honoring Our Nation of Caregivers

Thank you for joining us as we honored a nation of compassionate caregivers at the Schwartz Center’s 25th Anniversary Kenneth B. Schwartz Compassionate Healthcare Dinner. This virtual event celebrated the response of healthcare workers to the nation’s coronavirus pandemic and honored their commitment, resilience and compassion in the face of this public health crisis.

This event brought together leaders from the hospital, health plan, biotech, pharmaceutical and medical device industries as well as from banking, real estate and law around a common commitment to equitable and compassionate healthcare.
