We’re proud to announce that Holton Family Health Center—part of Community HealthCare System—has once again earned national recognition from OSHA’s Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program (SHARP). This achievement contributes to CHCS’s 22nd consecutive year of SHARP certification and highlights Holton’s exceptional commitment to workplace safety.
Holton Family Health Center is one of only a small number of primary care clinics nationwide to meet SHARP’s rigorous standards. The program honors organizations that proactively protect employees through strong, effective safety and health management systems.
“This achievement reflects our Holton team’s dedication to keeping each other—and our patients—safe every single day,” said CEO John Fitzthum. “The Holton Family Health Center staff continuously demonstrates what it means to prioritize safety. Their commitment is remarkable.”
Why It Matters
National data from the American Hospital Association and Press Ganey show that facilities with a strong culture of safety experience improved outcomes for both patients and staff. When employees feel supported, informed, and empowered, patient care and overall experience measurably improve.
“SHARP pushes us to look ahead, anticipate risks, and elevate our safety practices,” said Michael Bomberger, Director of Business Development and Special Projects. “For the Holton team, safety isn’t just a policy, it's practice—it’s part of their daily culture.
Thank you to the entire Holton Family Health Center team—from clinical staff to front office and support services—for your ongoing dedication to maintaining a safe and healthy environment for the community.
CHCS’s SHARP-certified locations include Holton Family Health Center; Centralia, Onaga, Frankfort, St. Marys, and Westmoreland clinics; Onaga Community Hospital; Eastridge Skilled Nursing Facility; Community HomeHealth; Redbud Plaza Assisted Living; and St. Marys Manor.
