"When Orlando Health comes into a community, the first thing we do is listen," said Ohme Entin, senior vice president of Orlando Health East Region. "We’re going to take the time to listen to our team members, our physicians, and our community leaders, and we’ll also listen to our patients."

Receptions are planned at each hospital to introduce new employees to Orlando Health staff.
