MISSION:

Community Healthcare System is committed to provide the highest quality care in the most cost-efficient manner, respecting the dignity of the individual, providing for the well being of the community and serving the needs of all people, including the poor and disadvantaged. 

VISION:

Community Healthcare System is one medical provider organized across three hospital campuses. It links three Indiana hospitals - Community Hospital in Munster; St. Catherine Hospital in East Chicago; and St. Mary Medical Center in Hobart - and many outpatient clinics and physician offices. The system is dedicated to maintain the Catholic tradition of St. Catherine Hospital and St. Mary Medical Center as well as the non-sectarian foundation of Community Hospital. Community Healthcare System will become the prominent, integrated healthcare system in Northwest Indiana. Through integration, the system will capitalize on opportunities to increase overall growth, improve operating efficiency, and realize capital to better serve our patients, physicians, and employees.
