Vision

We are the provider of choice in our chosen specialties. As committed community citizens, we are viewed as extended family by those we serve. An excellent value, we are caring, friendly, convenient and efficient beyond our competition.

Operating with unbending integrity, we have built an environment that is conducive to achieving our goals, thus our stakeholders including patients, physicians and associates deliberately choose to be associated with us. We are efficient and perform at a state-of-the-art level with technology that enhances the delivery of medical treatment. Our financial plan projects a healthy future and is adjusted regularly to reflect our progress and performance.

As a community hospital under local control, we are perceived as highly progressive. Our best of class facility has the right blend of form and function and is visually attractive, attracting people to our system. We have a board of high-level community leaders who effectively fulfill their oversight responsibilities and positively represent us in our service area.

We are the employer of choice. Our associates see us as fair, progressive, consistent and flexible. Because we deal with them in an honest and open way, they feel secure and enjoy the job satisfaction they need to provide superior patient care. We are family-friendly and offer competitive compensation and outstanding opportunities for professional education and career advancement.

Our physicians see us as progressive, keeping pace with changes in health care. We are true partners with our physicians, seeking their input on our strategic direction and valuing their contribution to our system. They are treated with the utmost respect and are an integral part of our decision making process.

As a result of our strategic focus and hard work, we have increased our emergency room visits and net patient revenue to achieve a consistent operating surplus of 4 percent or better. This ensures we remain financially secure and able to invest to grow, attract new people and capitalize on future opportunities.

Commitment to the Community

Through direct donations to area nonprofits, volunteer hours by our associates, free health screenings, educational classes on everything from child birth to diabetes to tobacco cessation, advanced life support services , and charitable care for uninsured and underinsured children and adults, we are making a difference in the lives of area residents.

We are also having a positive effect on the local economy. As one of the area’s largest employers, Memorial has more than 1,000 associates. Most of them live and raise their families in this community, so they are spending money locally and contributing to the local tax base.
