The bigger challenge is that the community is still very much poor and unhealthy. According to (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), over one – third of the population that live around the hospital have diabetes. Another big part of the population has Cancer, Heart Disease, and Kidney disease. The hospital can continue to add new things and make changes, but it has no control of what is happening to the city around them. The clinic is ranked second in the world report hospital rankings. It employs over 50,000 people in just the Ohio clinic. They also spend millions of dollars on additional education for their physicians, and also with making community investments. They have also put over $500,000 into a program to get rid of run down homes within the neighborhood. One of the clinics most significant investment was for the Langston Hughes Education Center. They offer free exercise equipment and adult day care. (By: Dan Diamond/07/17/17/ The Clinic is a global success story, but it’s host community remains mired in poverty) So when it comes to economy impact, they truly do go over and beyond and put out quite a bit of money and support other organizations.
