General Mission-Related Initiatives
At Legacy Health, we know that our legacy is something we create together every day. This is reflected in our mission of good health for our people, our patients, our communities and our world. We see it as our fundamental responsibility to improve the health and wellness of everyone we touch, empowering people to live healthier and better lives, and helping them create a legacy that truly lives on. Ours is a legacy of health and community, quality and innovation, respect and responsibility.Legacy Health was created in 1989 through the merger of HealthLink, a local four-hospital system, and Good Samaritan Hospital and Medical Center. Over the years Legacy has grown into the largest nonprofit, community-owned health system in the Portland/Vancouver area. Today, Legacy Health consists of an integrated network of six full-service hospitals and more than 50 clinics. The Legacy network provides acute and critical care, inpatient and outpatient treatment, urgent and primary care, and a variety of specialty services.At the heart of Legacys mission is our commitment to provide exceptional healthcare for all those in need. Legacy provides almost one-third of the charity care in the Portland area; more charity care relative to size than any of the leading health care organizations in the metropolitan area. The Legacy Health Foundation fosters charitable giving as well as community commitment and involvement to support the founding principles, mission and vision of Legacy Health and promote the health and well-being of the community.
