Fostering Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging – DEIB at Lifepoint Health
Lifepoint Health’s commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion is rooted in our mission, vision and core values as well as our belief that all people deserve equitable access to quality care close to home. We unite people with diverse backgrounds, experiences and abilities in a culture of belonging and foster places in which everyone feels welcome, included, seen, heard and cared for.
Our work in DEIB contributes to a culture of belonging. At Lifepoint, we create inclusive environments, communicate with empathy, work to understand and manage biases and support the needs and priorities in the communities we serve.
