CEO Welcome
Dear Patients, Families and Friends,
Welcome to EASTAR Health System (formerly Muskogee Regional Medical Center and Muskogee Community Hospital).
Since joining EASTAR, I have had the opportunity to meet so many caring people throughout the area and within our hospital. Eastern Oklahoma is unique in its rich heritage and topography. It is an area that shares many cultural differences but desires and deserves many of the same things.
Along with quality education for children, jobs, and a wonderful landscape to enrich life, you want the type of healthcare that meets all of your needs. The Board of Trustees, the Medical Staff, and all of our employees want that for you as well.
Our vision is to create a new system for Eastern Oklahoma that:
- is known for high-quality, cost-effective care;
- meets our community’s needs close to home, so patients don’t have to travel far;
- offers convenient access;
- allows for greater collaboration; and
- builds upon existing services and brings new and more complex services that we have today.
This vision is what’s guiding our plans for the future.
We believe –
- That you should have healthcare services that meet and exceed your expectations and place our hospital shoulder to shoulder with all other institutions in the region because you deserve nothing less.
- That our service should be friendly, compassionate, professional, caring and efficient because you deserve nothing less.
- That you should be proud of your hospital not just for its rich history of service to the community but for how it treats patients today, tomorrow and in the future because you deserve nothing less.
- That it will take our personal commitment to the highest quality of care and customer satisfaction that will make the difference because you are very special to us and deserve nothing less.
At the end of the day we must show you that we are committed by our actions and deeds, because – our goal is to remain the health provider of choice for you and your family.
In order to reach our goal, our services must be of the highest quality and provided with compassion, care, respect and professionalism. This is the pledge of The Board of Trustees, Medical Staff and employees of our health system.
Thanks for your support,
