Our philosophy

Good Samaritan Hospital is committed to providing the highest quality care for persons with a diagnosis of cancer by:

• Providing expertise and innovations that improve survival and promote physical, psychosocial, and spiritual well-being.
• Maintaining a standard of care that fosters hope, dignity, and self-respect by understanding the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of each individual seeking care.
• Recognizing that cancer affects family members and significant others as well as the individual with cancer.
• Evaluating the needs of our community and providing outreach, education, and screenings for prevention and early detection of cancer.
• Continually seeking to improve the scope and quality of our services in order to provide exceptional cancer care.

Our philosophy extends from the core values and mission statements of Advocate Health Care and Good Samaritan Hospital.
