Diversity and inclusion encompasses acceptance and respect. It is to understand that each individual is unique, and to recognize individual differences. We welcome the rich dimensions of individuality within our work force including race, ethnicity, color, national origin, faith, gender and ability.

We provide educational opportunities that enhance our associates' understanding of diversity and inclusion. We assess the recruitment and retention of diverse associates to ensure we are providing a welcoming inclusive work environment. Career development for all associates at all levels
allows them to grow to their fullest potential.

Diversity councils throughout the region assure that each facility is represented and has a voice in generating ideas and activities to continuously improve Mercy's model of diversity and inclusion.
