Our Unified Enterprise Ministry The Latin phrase ad astra per aspera – through hardships to the stars – comes to mind as we reflect on our organization’s impressive performance in a period of challenge and change confronting health care nationally. Trinity Health was able to achieve the majority of our community benefit, clinical and financial goals. Due to this success, we can continue supporting the communities we serve through technology gains, talent improvement, facilities expansion and charitable care to the uninsured and most vulnerable of our society. The communities we serve depend on us to generate new value and to invest more resources to advance the state of health care. Our organization brings together physicians, nurses and staff whose talent and energy drive a sustainable healing ministry of remarkable skill and scale. Joseph R. Swedish President and CEO Trinity Health Trinity Health aims to be transformational, both in our ministry and operations as we adhere to and exceed national performance benchmarks. In doing so, we see ourselves as a Unified Enterprise Ministry ® : • We’re unifying in our desire to provide high quality care within an affordable cost structure. • We’re enterprising in our willingness to accept business risk to give our patients the best patient care experience anywhere. • Most important, Trinity Health is a ministry. We’re providing services to everyone and especially to those who are less fortunate and most vulnerable. As a Unified Enterprise Ministry, our people make the difference. By working together, Trinity Health has become one of the strongest and most respected networks of tax-exempt community hospitals in the country. Our culture and operating model are focused solely on how we can create a superior patient care experience supported by operational and service excellence. The spirit of our organization arises from a 160-year legacy of Catholic congregations meeting the health needs of their time and place, and lives today in every associate, physician, nurse, volunteer, trustee and partner dedicated to our sustainable healing ministry.
