Our Call to Action—Healthcare that Works, Healthcare that is Safe and Healthcare that Leaves No One Behind
YOU are the Pulse of Providence
The people who work and volunteer at Providence are incredibly special.
No matter what new technologies we have or what’s happening on the national
healthcare scene, at the end of the day, it is each of YOU who make the decision to
come in and devote yourselves to carrying out our mission. It is each of YOU who
make the difference to every patient who is treated here. Passion, skill and devotion
to healing, from you, and those who came before you, have remained constant for
over a century. Thank you for being the heart and soul… the Pulse of Providence.
As we start a new year, we are excited about this inaugural edition of The Pulse
of Providence. As an online publication, you will start to see more interactive
capabilities including online photo albums, videos, and more! Our goal is to inform,
educate and encourage one another…as we work together to provide healthcare
that works, healthcare that is safe and healthcare that leaves no one behind.
We look forward to continuing this journey with you—help us tell our story.
