Remove Site Health Widget

The site health widget can alert you to issues on the website, but this can also be confusing to clients and increase maintenance requests to resolve “issues” when the website is functioning properly. Hide this widget using the following snippet.

Place in functions.php

add_action('wp_dashboard_setup', 'remove_site_health_dashboard_widget');
function remove_site_health_dashboard_widget()
{
    remove_meta_box('dashboard_site_health', 'dashboard', 'normal');
}

Source.
