Mount Carmel Health System A Shared Vision Transforming Mount Carmel West | Page 3
During our planning process, it became clear that one organization can’t do it all—but together we can create positive,
sustainable change that ultimately impacts the community’s broader quality of life. At the same time, the planning
and implementation of the 13 themes require a clear leader to take accountability for moving initiatives forward while
keeping all community partners involved.
Three categories of leadership were identified and each
of the 13 themes was assigned to a category as follows:
1
Mount Carmel

Themes
These themes require shared leadership
between Mount Carmel and community
partner(s). Many of these themes
involve current Mount Carmel space or
programming but require heavy input or
support from external partners. Because expertise for these
themes exists with community
partner(s), a community lead is
required with Mount Carmel in a
supportive role.
