OUR STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK

 

People

We are in the people business and they are at the center of what we do! We are a group of people caring for another group of people.

Healthier Communities

We want to keep our communities healthy when they aren’t sick and help them get healthy when they are sick. This is how we do our part in making our communities healthier.

Accessibility

We can do everything right but if people can’t get to us they cannot get the great care we have to give. It is important to connect to those in outlying areas – that might be working with government officials on broadband access or adjusting hours to be available for appointments at their convenience.

Affordability

Plain and simple, we want to work at becoming increasingly affordable.

Sustainability

Making sure we are here well into the future for our Caregivers and our communities.
