The
American Hospital Association (AHA) is encouraging hospitals to demonstrate that the health care community stands together to combat
violence in our workplaces and our communities
on Hospitals Against Violence (#HAVhope) Day of Awareness this Friday, June 8.
The event will focus national attention on
ending all forms of violence with a digital media campaign – shared tweets,
posted photos, and other online efforts. AHA asks hospitals to join its social media efforts and share photos and posts
highlighting their work to prevent violence on social media using the hashtag
#HAVhope. A new video supporting the initiative is available on YouTube.
