4 HEALTH COMPASS Late Spring 2026 People are at the heart of all we do Person-Centered Care Steering Committee The Person-Centered Care Steering Committee engages and empowers caregivers to work together to create a more person-centered environment at CMH. Caregivers on the committee represent day and night shifts, on-site and off-site locations, and clinical and non-clinical work areas. Leaders, providers and a Board member serve, as well. The group monitors progress toward our ongoing Planetree gold-level certification and strategic plan initiatives. They also work to improve the patient and caregiver experience by gathering patient and caregiver input on person-centered practices and setting goals to support person-centered care at CMH. Board of Trustees As a not-for-profit organization, CMH does not have shareholders. Rather, it has people and groups who benefit from the hospital’s quality services. Those groups include patients and their families; people who live and work in the communities we serve; and our caregivers, health care providers and other businesses. The CMH Board of Trustees’ primary responsibility is to protect the interests of those groups. The Board consists of 15 dedicated volunteer community members. They set the vision and mission of the organization and work toward the shared goal of keeping our hospital viable — ensuring the delivery of safe, quality health care services. Celebrating our caregivers At CMH, our friendly and welcoming team of caregivers and providers is deeply committed to improving the health of the surrounding community. People are at the heart of all we do, and we want our patients to feel right at home as they are cared for at our hospital and clinics. Our team includes caregivers working behind the scenes in administration, a facilities team to keep our equipment and buildings in good shape, lab and imaging technologists who run tests to make or confirm diagnoses, compassionate nurses, medical assistants, nurse anesthetists, doctors and advanced practice practitioners providing high-quality care, a Board guiding our way, and more. We refer to all team members as caregivers, because whether or not they are providing medical attention, everyone here cares for our community. In addition to our caregivers and providers, our team is enhanced by dedicated volunteers and committees of patients who give feedback on their experience.
