These include urgent care; outpatient imaging and rehabilitation; sleep medicine labs; cardiac testing facilities; behavioral health, digestive health and wound care centers; home care and hospice; and more than 35 primary and specialty physician practices in Gloucester, Cumberland, Salem, Camden and Atlantic counties.
Together with our medical staff of more than 1,200 physicians and other health care providers, we provide evidence-based care to help each patient achieve the best possible outcome. Our clinical and support staffs are focused on providing quality care in a safe environment for every patient. And we understand that to provide excellent care to our patients, we must also be sensitive to the needs of their families. The love and support of family can comfort and strengthen patients while aiding the healing process.
In support of our mission to improve the lives of all we serve, the leadership and staff of Inspira Health are dedicated to clinical and service excellence. However, as a leading regional health network, we are committed to doing more than just that. We believe our organization must become a source of inspiration, encouraging everyone to lead healthier lives. This can only be achieved by working together with our communities; by bringing vital services to the towns and neighborhoods we serve; and partnering with like-minded organizations to create a culture throughout our region that fosters good health for everyone.
