Northwestern Medical Center’s strength as a vital and valued community resource is built upon a clear understanding of why we exist, where we need to be, and the principles which guide us along the way. This is expressed through our mission, vision, and values statements which shape our long-term strategic planning and informs our daily decision making.
Northwestern Medical Center participates in the accountable care organization, OneCare Vermont, because we believe in offering the best care possible to Vermonters—and because we support the shift to value-based care.
