The Press-Enterprise’s recent article “INLAND: 15 people to watch in 2015” featured Richard Hart, MD, DrPH, president of Loma Linda University Health.
The reason cited? The article says:
“Hart is the force behind the planned Loma Linda University Health – San Bernardino development, which will house a comprehensive medical clinic in the city’s downtown, but also offer health care certificate programs for high school students and adults. Expected to open in 2016, the project aims to give the city more skilled workers and quality health care.”
Loma Linda University Health broke ground for the project on Dec. 10, 2014.
Hart notes that the project will help support the San Bernardino economy and promote health and wholeness in the community for years to come.
“Studies of the infrastructure of San Bernardino have found that there are two large unmet needs in this community,” Hart explained. “The first is a lack of skilled workers. The second is a lack of quality health care. Our new project will help address both of those sectors of the economy by providing career education and health care for area residents as well as creating employment opportunities.”
