Community Outreach

This report illustrates the significant degree to which Baptist Hospital contributes to the positive health status of the communities it serves.  As a member of Ascension Health, the nation’s largest Catholic healthcare system, Baptist Hospital continues to build and strengthen sustainable collaborative efforts that benefit the health of individuals, families, and society as a whole.  The goal of Baptist Hospital is to perpetuate the healing mission of the church.  Baptist Hospital furthers this goal through delivery of patient services, care to the elderly and indigent, patient education and health awareness programs for the community, and medical research. Our concern for all human life and dignity of each person leads the organization to provide medical services to all people in the community without regard to the patient’s race, creed, national origin, economic status, or ability to pay.  In order to portray the full breadth of our contribution, our community benefit information is described below:
