It was a beautiful day for our fourth annual Ardent Cares Golf Classic at the Hermitage Golf Course. Together with our team members and vendor partners, we raised more than $280,000 for the Ardent Cares Foundation. The Ardent Cares Foundation is critical to our purpose of caring for one another - supporting team members across Ardent when a medical emergency or natural disaster strikes. Thank you to everyone who made this such a successful event!
