A healthcare system based in Johnstown is embracing a new vision for the future. Conemaugh Health System, acquired By Duke LifePoint in 2014, has now adopted the mission statement of its parent company.

 

The new mission is “Making Communities Healthier. “The focus is on creating places where people choose to come for healthcare, physicians want to practice and employees want to work.

 

“These important philosophies have guided LifePoint since its founding in 1999, and represent one of the reasons this organization is the right partner for Conemaugh,” said Steve Tucker, Conemaugh Health System CEO. “Duke LifePoint shares our commitment to improving the overall health and well-being of our communities, and ensuring that people here have access to quality care close to home.”
