2022 Annual Report
In our first-ever annual report we share a look at our teams, patients, services and key initiatives for how we are constantly trying to improve our patient experience in ‘caring for our communities.’
A Global Framework for Our Impact
The United Nation’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) define global aspirations agreed upon by all UN-member governments for 2030. It also provides a framework for organizations to report their efforts, as many major healthcare leaders are doing. From a 2022 consultancy workshop, our leadership selected the following as our main focus areas to track our progress against these shared goals for the greater good. We share our overarching goals and highlights of our latest efforts here:
Reduce Patient Food Insecurity
Following the launch of our patient Food Pantry program in 2022, we will continue plans to build on nutrition-education resources and other future offerings alongside our community partners.
