Description

ORGANIZATIONAL INFORMATION The organization has been serving its suburban community since the early 1960s. It is a 210-bed, acute care, not-for-profit hospital with an active emergency department and more than 7,000 admissions per year. A volunteer board of 13 trustees governs the organization, and its trustees include businesspersons from the community, physicians, and sponsors. The organization serves a community that used to be predominantly middle class and aging; today, that demographic is changing. The community remains predominantly older, but many younger families are moving to the affordable housing it offers, and it is attracting many different ethnicities as well. The organization employs nearly 800 full-time equivalents and has a very large and active medical teaching program, including residencies in general surgery, otolaryngology, neurology, internal medicine, emergency/internal medicine, orthopedics, ophthalmology, family practice, and podiatry. The organization's reach into the community beyond the services of the hospital is facilitated through its medical training programs and other community partnerships.
