The Mercy Health Population & Community Health Institute provides evidence-based models for meeting the needs of the communities we serve. Impact Statement Partnering with committed, faith-driven donors, the Mercy Health Foundation makes lives better and communities stronger. To amplify our impact on body, mind, and spirit, our work focuses on three pillars that emphasize innovative solutions to build healthier communities for those most at-risk – the poor and under-served. Improving Access to Care Throughout Greater Cincinnati, we identify and fund specific, innovative programs that ensure the availability of high quality, compassionate care for the poor and the under-served. With a strong regional network of caregivers and a rich heritage of faith-based service, we live our Mission by supporting patient-centered, culturally competent initiatives. Advancing Clinical Care Mercy Health serves our region with award-winning hospitals, leading physicians, advanced technology, and experienced and compassionate caregivers. If our patients are to benefit from advanced clinical care, we must continuously increase our investment in our infrastructure to drive innovation in employee education, equipment, and research to keep our people, technology and facilities on the leading edge. Building Healthier Communities Rooted deeply in our communities, we identify and fund opportunities to make lives better through comprehensive wellness initiatives. Using innovative approaches with specific, targeted outcomes, we lead, convene and collaborate to drive improved healthcare outcomes and lower healthcare costs for individuals and communities.
