Unity Health Care’s Post

As the end of the year approaches, we’re taking a moment to reflect. For this month’s newsletter, we’re sharing words of wisdom directly from a few of our grant partners, in the form of two short videos showcasing their answers to our beloved interview question, “what is your guiding principle or North Star?”. Both videos capture the essence of our partners’ work – what they’ve accomplished and the future they aspire to build. For us, they’ve instilled a renewed sense of hope. We’re keen they will do the same for you. Here is a teaser from Part II, featuring Health Care For All Massachusetts. The full video delves into the heart of healthcare advocacy, featuring several Rx partners who work diligently for equitable, affordable, and high-quality healthcare across the United States. Collectively, their narratives underscore the shared belief that everyone, regardless of background or circumstance, should have access to healthcare that meets their needs when, where, and how they need it.

Clinicians aren’t just healers; they are also experts in patient care. Involving them in philanthropic decision-making allows health care organizations to leverage their firsthand experience and knowledge, ensuring funds are directed to areas with the greatest potential to improve health outcomes. When clinicians actively participate in philanthropy, their personal touch helps organizations build deeper, more meaningful relationships, fostering greater donor loyalty and more generous contributions. Their involvement adds a genuine sense of trust and authenticity to the foundation’s mission, enhancing its credibility and appeal. However, clinician involvement is not always easy. Even in the best of times, the overarching overlay of burnout makes engagement difficult. Check out this week's eNews for a piece from Accordant's Susan Attwell, CFRE, on how to cultivate mutually fulfilling clinician-philanthropy partnerships and effectively address clinician burnout simultaneously: https://ow.ly/PQwn50SE6Ep #healthcare #philanthropy #clinicianpartnership

Funding is, by far, the limiting factor to advance community health. There is a substantial need for philanthropy in this space. In a survey conducted by ReThink Health, 82% state that, “Not enough funding for our services, programs or policies,” is a barrier contributing to equitable community well-being.* To meet the financial challenge faced by health care organizations, health care foundations are leaning in and incorporating health equity in their philanthropic case for support. For many organizations, designing a health equity case requires a fresh approach beyond the traditional capital and/or specialty care projects.

👩⚕️Yesterday was #WorldHealthDay, calling to attention the urgent need for improvements in the UK healthcare system. That's why we're collaborating with local health providers, charities, and social enterprises to develop innovative solutions that alleviate pressure on the NHS by shifting focus towards prevention rather than crisis response. Social Outcomes Contracts (SOCs) are a proven way of delivering effective healthcare services as they provide a type of commissioning that is local, person-centric and places communities back in control. Swipe to discover how SOCs enable tailored healthcare solutions that address complex and entrenched issues faced by local communities 👇 #OutcomesPartnerships #SocialImpact

Interesting insight. Well done on the consultation 👏🏻👏🏻 An important next step isn’t necessarily more insight but for us to take action on what people are actually telling us (and probably have been telling us for a while ) The Empathy gap is such an important but often overlooked barrier to people becoming active.

It’s Time for All of Us to Step Up: Addressing Our Healthcare Crisis In these challenging times, our healthcare system is under unprecedented strain. From overwhelmed hospitals to exhausted healthcare workers, the impacts are profound and widespread. This crisis calls for more than just awareness—it demands action from each of us. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a business leader, or someone with the capacity to volunteer or donate, your contribution matters. Businesses can offer support through fundraising, providing services, or even just by prioritizing the health and wellness of their employees. Individuals can help by volunteering, donating blood, or supporting local healthcare initiatives. Every effort counts and no act of kindness is too small. We have a collective responsibility to support our healthcare providers and improve the system for all. Let’s come together to make a significant impact. Dig deep, engage actively, and let’s show our healthcare heroes that they are not alone. #HealthcareCrisis #ActNow #CommunitySupport #HealthcareHeroes
