Strategic Plan

Our method for maintaining high healthcare standards

Guided by our mission, vision, and values, the goals and strategies outlined in this plan provide Heart of the Rockies Regional Medical Center with a guide to deliver the highest quality patient care and customer service. This strategic plan is the result of feedback from employees, physicians, patients and families, hospital board members, business representatives and members of the community.

The plan has measurable goals, and defined strategies and action steps to reach them. Progress in achieving the goals outlined in the plan is reviewed at the monthly hospital board meetings, which are open to the public and listed in our Events Calendar. Public feedback is welcome at the meetings, or you may email cynthia.nachtrieb@hrrmc.net.

If you would like more information about the Strategic Plan, contact Marketing and Public Relations Director Allison Gergley at allison.gergley@hrrmc.net.
