Investing in rural healthcare is key to building a better healthcare system that works for all Delawareans. That begins with laser-focused efforts for our rural communities that support innovation, workforce, access, and more. Congratulations to Governor Matt Meyer for submitting a robust application for up to $1 billion from the Rural Health Transformation Program that includes projects to help expand access, lower costs, grow the health workforce, and ultimately improve health outcomes.

DHA looks forward to our continued collaboration with Governor Meyer and stakeholders across Delaware to turn this plan into reality. It was great to see so many members at yesterday's announcement, including host Beebe Healthcare as well as Bayhealth, ChristianaCare, Dover Behavioral Health System, SUN Behavioral Delaware, and TidalHealth Nanticoke!

Congratulations to House Speaker Rep. Melissa Minor-Brown on a successful vaccine and wellness drive this weekend! DHA was proud to support this event. As we head into the winter months, it's so important to take action to keep yourself and your loved ones healthy. When all residents have access to preventative care, including vaccines, our communities are stronger and healthier. Make your plan today!

Thank you to Speaker Minor-Brown and Sen. Marie Pinkney for your advocacy.

How is it November? As we near the end of 2025, we wanted to take a moment to introduce y'all to the Delaware Healthcare Association's small but mighty team. First up, we have our fearless Vice President of External Affairs Christina Bryan.

Growing up just outside of Bethany Beach, the beach is still Christina's favorite hobby when she's not leading communications and public affairs strategy. Here are few other fun facts about Christina!

🥦 If you could be a vegetable - what would you be? Broccoli
🖥️ What was first your first AIM screen name? Surfstar14
🍽️ What is your favorite local restaurant? Heirloom in Lewes - my husband and I went on our first date there soon after it opened!
🎶 What was your first concert? Janet Jackson with NSYNC as the opener back in 1998.
❤️ What makes you excited about working for DHA? I am constantly learning about new programs/initiatives our hospitals have that not only keep DE #1 in the nation for hospital quality but also strive to improve health in their communities. It's fun to be able to share these stories with legislators and Delawareans.

Congrats to our First State Health Leaders Alliance Delaware Health Care Facilities Association on a great annual conference and trade show! This year’s theme was around navigating complex challenges. DHA member MeadowWood Behavioral Health Hospital participated and shared information on a variety of services in our community.

This week, experts from ChristianaCare Wilmington Hospital's trauma team facilitated a Stop The Bleed Training for the Delaware Contractors Association. Partnerships like this support a healthy, thriving state. This training helps empower community members with the skills to control bleeding injuries from serious accidents or disasters. The hands-on learning for those in the construction field was informative and powerful. Thank you for the amazing partnership!

One of the best things about Delaware is we always step up to help our neighbors. The DHA team recently put together a donation to drop off at the Food Bank of Delaware to help support our community during this time of uncertainty. Access to food is essential to overall health outcomes. It will take all of us, working together, to rise above these challenges.

It is Forensic Nurses Week, a time to honor the team members who stand beside patients in their most vulnerable moments. We thank you for your compassion and trauma-informed care.

DHA's Human Trafficking Medical Committee includes forensic nurse examiners from Delaware hospitals who are committed to providing compassionate care for victims of sexual assault, abuse, and other violent crimes. By celebrating their work this week and beyond, we bring greater awareness and highlight their dedication!

DHA member Select Specialty Hospital - Wilmington is a 24/7/365 critical illness recovery hospital located on the ninth floor of ChristianaCare Wilmington Hospital. The facility, part of a leading provider of post-acute care in the country, specializes in treating medically complex patients, the majority arriving in need of pulmonary support or on a ventilator. Staff serve a unique population of individuals who are leaving the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) but still need additional specialized care before the next step in their recovery journey like inpatient rehabilitation or returning home.

It was great to see the team in action this October! Learn more about Select Specialty here: https://www.selectspecialtyhospitals.com/locations-and-tours/de/wilmington/wilmington/
