Mission & Values

Palestine Regional Medical Center is part of ScionHealth, one of the nation’s largest hospital systems whose purpose is to “empower the hands that heal” to do what they do best.

We accomplish this purpose as we provide skilled, compassionate care to the many friends, families and neighbors in the communities we serve who come through our doors seeking better health and well-being. And, we enhance our ability to deliver outstanding patient outcomes and experiences by living our company’s three Values that Empower: Value Every Voice, Show Courage, and Lean Into New Ideas.

By embracing these values of putting our people first, showing great courage, and thinking differently about how we serve our patients and communities ‒ and modeling the related behaviors ‒ we empower our caregivers to do what they do best. Our values in action look something like this:

Value Every Voice Care deeply for every patient and each other Intentionally include diverse voices Create space for celebration and fun
Show Courage Speak up when something is not right Run toward the challenge, not away from it Roll up our sleeves and find a way!
Lean Into New Ideas Encourage critical thinking Embrace curiosity and question-asking Learn from feedback and failure

These values help guide our actions as caregivers and team members and define what you should expect from us as your healthcare partner.
