Collaborating to Improve Patient Care

Focusing on the best care possible

By connecting doctors, nurses and other health care professionals in our hospitals, medical offices, long-term care facilities and patients’ homes, we encourage communication and cooperation. We have chosen some special areas of medicine to focus particular attention in order to give our patients the best possible care.

The following are areas of medicine that we are currently focusing special attention:

• The Breast Cancer Project
• Improving Care for Heart Attack Patients
• The First Pregnancy and Delivery Initiative
• Our Asthma Initiative
