This year’s Solidarity Week will be February 13-17!
Solidarity Week for Compassionate Patient Care is a special week each year around Valentine’s Day to celebrate patients and clinicians and the special bond of trust and compassion that yields the best care. Led by the Gold Humanism Honor Society, Solidarity Week is open to GHHS chapters and healthcare institutions around the world. We invite you to participate this year by creating special activities Feb. 13-17 to honor patients, recognize clinicians, and focus on the human connection that is so important to healthcare.

The participation from our chapters during 2022 Solidarity Week for Compassionate Patient Care was beyond inspiring. Our chapters held panel discussions on topics such as gentrification in West Philadelphia, Immigrant Health, and how to better care for our veterans. Our members baked, cooked, crafted, and put together gift baskets for their patients and their families, and most importantly spent hours harnessing a deep human connection with them. We are grateful to all of our members for the ongoing humanistic impact that they are having in their communities.
GHHS has chapters across the United States and around the world. Sharing photos of your Solidarity Week celebrations is a great way to connect to others during this special week. Click here to see how to connect during Solidarity Week.
