MISSION
STATEMENT
The
community clinics located in Humboldt, Trinity and Del Norte counties,
have joined together as the North Coast Clinics Network to accomplish
the following purposes:
- to
coordinate the development of cooperative business plans which
improve the quality of care and efficiency of Network members,
- to
advocate for innovative strategies that integrate all community
providers into a comprehensive and accessible system of high quality
health care,
- to
promote public knowledge and understanding of the role of community
clinics and the challenges facing providers in rural areas.
VALUES
- We
believe that all residents of our three county region should have
reasonable access to high quality care.
- Although
we believe that competition has a role in health care, we think
that in our environment, trust and cooperation among the members
of the NCCN will better serve the interests of our clients.
- In
order to adapt to changes in the health care system, we believe
that ongoing staff training at all levels is essential.
