NATIONAL HOSPITALITY IMPACT REPORT IS AVAILABLE!

The report was sent to participating members on November 20, 2020. Non-participating organizations can purchase the report and supplementary documents at the link below. The toolkit includes:

  • The HHN National Hospitality Impact Report (IRB approved)  – this is 24-page PDF is the actual survey data. Included in this report is the original survey, the responses, and for some key questions: additional charts, graphics, or illustrations that visually communicate the impact being measured.  
  • The report is shared as a PDF which can be distributed to partners and potential funders. In addition, we will be sharing the In Design files which includes the graphic templates. This will enable you to edit or re-arrange the order of the questions and the table of contents will automatically update. Additionally, the graphics templates are included in the In Design program allowing you to adapt the graphics and illustrations to your individual data so that you can compare your individual house with the national stats. We will be sharing instructions from our graphic designer on how to navigate the files and hopefully address anything that may be confusing. We are testing these files now and will get them up on our website soon. 
  • The Supplemental Case Statement Examples: the purpose of this document is to assist you in framing case statement examples to help communicate your mission and program impact to potential funders. The case statements help explain why we included specific questions in the survey and how to use the data to enhance your grant writing. Also included in the document are supplemental studies and information to give you a sense of the research and data that can be referenced when developing your individual case statements (links to the references are included in the footnotes). 
  • On-demand recording presenting the final report with the Hospitality Impact team. They were joined by a grant writing expert who shared best practices when adapting and utilizing the survey in your grant applications.

This is the only known industry survey that captures the impact of healthcare hospitality houses on patient outcomes.
