EMA's Guiding Principles

Clinical Excellence

Continue to be recognized for our clinical innovation, excellence, and integrity.

Be a leader in translating cutting edge academic, technologically advanced practices, techniques and methodologies into practical application in a community based setting.

Focus on Stakeholder Satisfaction

Patients

Treat each patient with the respect they deserve and always keep in mind that each patient represents a son, daughter, mother or father who we will care for as one of our own.


Hospitals

Hospitals represent the backbone of community medical services and we remain focused on ensuring their viability and longevity.


Community

We have a responsibility to our communities to be active participants in and advocates for their care. We will remain focused on protecting the rights of the community to quality care through our actions, or through legislative or judicial means.


Providers

Our physicians and mid-levels represent the face and lifeblood of our organization. We will provide them with environments that encourage the practice of medicine with sound and objective judgment, infrastructure to support the management of their careers and tools to aid them in their goal to providing superior care on a daily basis.


Business Management and Long-Term Outlook

Manage the business with the primary intent of achieving sustainable, long-term growth, and not be distracted by short-term solutions that may have long-term consequences.

Apply disciplined decision-making in managing our product portfolio and infrastructure investments, and remain diligent in building an "Organization of Excellence" to support our "Departments of Excellence."

People and Culture

Embrace our unique culture: our commitment to patients, our passion for clinical excellence, and our respect for the contribution of every individual.

Hire only the best people and incentivize them based on performance.

Set the expectations for high performance and strive to exceed those expectations.

Delivering on the EMA Mission through proven business practices.
