With a 150-year heritage as a community hospital and medical provider, Southwest has evolved to reflect the dynamic and growing region, including Clark County and communities of Southwest Washington. Our commitment is reflected through generous community benefits and outreach services.
In 2005, the Board of Directors adopted a new vision statement that reflects where the organization is heading in the future. Simply put, we're about our three E's.
Vision: Exceptional medicine. Extraordinary care. Every person.
Our mission remains unchanged and reflects what we do every day to make our region a better place to live.
Mission: As the leader in the provision of health services for our entire community, we emphasize clinical and service quality, promote accessible and affordable care and work with others to improve health status.
