CLEVELAND, Ohio - February 10, 2009 - Hyland Software, Inc. has selected North Coast Health Ministry (NCHM) as a partner agency for its employee volunteer program. The purpose of Hyland's newly formalized employee volunteer program is to give back to the communities where company employees live and work by offering paid time off for volunteer work.
North Coast Health Ministry was chosen for the partnership as a local non-profit organization that uses Hyland Software's OnBase enterprise content management (ECM) software and as an expression of Hyland's support for NCHM's mission of providing health care to the low-income uninsured.
"Hyland Software values the vital health care services North Coast Health Ministry provides to uninsured people in our community. We're grateful for the opportunity to share our software, as well as our employees' skills and expertise in an effort to support NCHM's important work," said A.J. Hyland, President and CEO, Hyland Software, Inc.
The first Hyland employee volunteer project conducted for North Coast Health Ministry will be a systems analysis to identify how to optimize the agency's use of information technology with the goals of greater operational effectiveness and efficiency. The Hyland employee volunteer team will be headed by Installation Manager Kevin Hughes.
"We are grateful to have been chosen as a partner by Hyland," said NCHM Executive Director Lee Elmore. "The work Hyland is doing for NCHM will increase our efficiency, help us minimize administrative time, and optimize how we use volunteer caregivers.
