Dylan Klempner
Artsy.net
Hospital art helps people heal, but the artworks
need care too. From lobbies to hallways to
consultation rooms, the work of renowned artists—and
local artists too—are on display to weather the

the sunlight, the fingerprints. It's no easy task to
maintain these works. It's also expensive (but worth
the price).

The Cure That Works
How to Have
the World's Best Healthcare— at a Quarter of the
Price
Sean Masaki Flynn, Ph.D.
What’s the most important fact about the Healthcare
Crisis? That we already know the cure! Whole Foods
Markets, the State of Indiana, and innovators around
the world have used forgotten American ideas to
slash healthcare costs by 75 percent while
simultaneously delivering true universal access,
coverage for preexisting conditions, and an ironclad
safety net. Author Sean Flynn explains that simple
things—like price tags, competition, and plentiful
health savings contributions—crush costs while
granting everyone equal access to the world’s best
healthcare services.

Best Mattress Reviews
https://www.bestmattressreviews.com/about-us/
Best Mattress Reviews is run by a review team of
veterans from the mattress industry as well as
journalists who have written extensively about
sleep health and sleep products. We’re a
Seattle-based crew where all those dark, rainy
days really charge up our hypersomnia, and
persistently lead us to the next cup of coffee.
So, of all people, we understand the importance
of a good night’s sleep, and how your mattress
can help or hinder that. Our goal is to give you
the knowledge needed to make informed decisions
about what mattress is best for you, so that you
sleep soundly.
Consumer Safety Guide
https://www.consumersafetyguide.com/
We’re here to help you get the answers you need
about consumer and medical products. We want to

products. Our goal is to be your go-to online
resource. We provide accurate, relevant
information in one place, so it’s easy and
convenient for you to know what risks you face.
We give you information about which products and

Drug Rehab Connections
https://www.drugrehabconnections.com
We provide unbiased information reviewed by
medical experts so our readers can make an
informed decision on the next steps in their, or
a loved one’s, drug rehabilitation journey. Drug
Rehab Connections was founded by a group of
individuals who know both sides of addiction. We
know it from our personal lives as well as
engaging and working with rehab and treatment
centers. We are not a Treatment Center. Rather,
We are a starting point to finding help for
individuals and families battling addiction. We
want to answer your questions—about drug rehab,
the therapies available, treatment programs, and
more—so that you are able to make decisions that
can ultimately save your life or someone you
care about.

commitment to small, daily choices. We create
content that engages and informs, and we complement
it with practical tools to make living healthy an

MattressHelp.org
https://mattresshelp.org/
First off, to be absolutely clear: mattress
companies do not pay us for these reviews, and
all our content is unbiased and independently
researched. We’re beholden to you, the consumer,
and not a mattress company. We created
MattressHelp.org with one goal in mind: to help
answer sleep questions so everyone can have a
better night’s sleep.

ProjectKnow.com aims to inform parents and
family members of those struggling with
addiction, as well as addicts and alcoholics
themselves, about the options available for
treating addiction. With a library of original
content, we educate in simple language. While
ProjectKnow.com is not meant to take the place
of advice from medical professionals, who should
always be consulted regarding issues of
substance abuse or potential behavioral health
disorders, we do provide overviews and offer
resources that can expedite the process of
familiarizing yourself with addiction, drug and
alcohol abuse, dependency, treatment and
recovery topics and options.

https://www.recallreport.org/

products. With hundreds of suspected or
