Our mission:

To care for our patients and the health of our community.

Our vision: 

To be the best community hospital.

This means we provide our patients care on which they can depend, competent staff with up-to-date knowledge and skills, quality medical staff, and attention to what is important to patients and their loved ones.

Leading with Heart: Rooted in Humanity
Good health starts well beyond the hospital or the clinic. It starts in our communities, our homes, our schools, and our workplaces. It involves mind, body, and spirit. Caring for all three is the reason Duke Health exists. We value our responsibility as a health care system and are committed to providing the highest quality care for all.
