This year has been filled with unexpected challenges and uncertainties for everyone. But through it all, we could always count on doctors, nurses, and hospital employees to show up for patients and provide lifesaving care for their communities. Their unwavering commitment to high-quality care — and the strength and tenacity of their patients — is a bright spot in a year that's been overshadowed by an unprecedented health crisis.

We rounded up some of the many pieces of good news that you may have missed this year. Check out these stories showcasing Hospital Heroes and patients who persevered through challenges like a pandemic, a hurricane, a novel surgery, and more.



We hope you enjoy reflecting on some of the good news that came out of 2020 — and the everyday heroes who made these headlines possible.

Thank you,
