At BMC, we are dedicated to reducing our carbon footprint because we know that healthier hospitals mean healthier communities. By generating much of our own electricity, committing to efficient buildings and machines, investing in solar power, and establishing the first hospital-based rooftop farm, we plan to be able to thrive well into the future and continue to serve our community in the face of any potential climate disaster.

As the weather gets colder and we all spend more time indoors, it’s important to be aware of how you can help keep yourself and your loved ones from getting sick. "Unfortunately, this year it’s looking like we may have a substantial number of influenza cases," said BMC infectious disease expert Dr. Sabrina Assoumou.

If you have symptoms of these viruses, please call us first - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can also visit bmc.org/urgentcare for more information. Getting vaccinated is still your best defense against serious illness, and BMC is hosting several upcoming flu and COVID vaccination events.

Last month, we celebrated nearly 900 employees who reached milestone work anniversaries, from five years to 45 years! In true BMC style, there was much dancing – along with food, laughter, and all-around fun at this memorable event. Thank you to all our dedicated staff for their years of service providing exceptional care within our community. We couldn’t be BMC without their hard work and commitment to our mission.
