THE METROHEALTH SYSTEM

The Metro Health System – a nationally ranked non-profit, public health care system – is one of the largest, most comprehensive healthcare providers in Northeast Ohio, serving the medical needs of the Greater Cleveland community since 1837. Leadership demonstrates collaboration, innovation, and singular ambition in their approach to each of the institution’s missions at a time when Metro Health has never been more aligned and integrated, as reflected in outstanding clinical growth and financial success.

Metro Health has survived wars, plagues, recessions and depressions, and civic, demographic and political change with the same mission: to care for the health of everyone in the community. This mission has remained at the core of Metro Health generation after generation and is woven into the fabric and character of the organization – to serve as the community’s caregiver, regardless.

Metro Health’s resilience has enabled it to overcome challenges that have caused other public hospitals to fail or be subsumed into large, private systems. A key to its longevity and ability to fulfill its mission has been its ability to formulate strategies and execute business plans that are responsive to market and regulatory forces. The Metro Health System is inclusive of the Metro Health Medical Center and over 25 additional inpatient and outpatient facilities throughout Northeast Ohio.

Throughout the system, Metro Health approaches the system’s core values utilizing STAR IQ:
Service to others, teamwork, accountability, respect, inclusion and diversity, quest for excellence and teamwork. Metro Health’s culture embraces all, treats all, and sees value in all.

ACADEMIC AFFILIATIONS AND MEDICAL EDUCATION

Teaching and research have always been an important part of the System’s mission as exemplified by the rich history of medical research and education. Metro Health was ranked among the 50 top teaching hospitals in the US by Washington Monthly Magazine. Affiliated with Case Western Reserve University (“CWRU”) School of Medicine since 1914, Metro Health is uniquely situated to train the next generation of innovative clinicians and scholars who want to improve health and health care across Northeast Ohio.
