Celebrating its one year anniversary, learn more about how Sinai Health System is changing the healthcare experience, together: http://www.sinaihealthsystem.ca/en/in... In January 2015, Mount Sinai Hospital, Bridgepoint Active Healthcare, Circle of Care and Lunenfeld Tanebaum Reseach Institute came together to form Sinai Health System. Its goal was to serve patients across the continuum of care and life course by integrating acute, complex chronic care, rehabilitative care with primary and community-based care. Sinai Health System goal was also to further its academic role by creating new, academic, clinical models for complex patients and building an integrated research enterprise, focused on discovery and innovative health solutions. "The past 12 months have been an incredible journey as we have begun to move from operating as separate organizations to one," said Joseph Mapa, President and CEO of Sinai Health System. "What brought us together was the shared belief that we could do better for our patients together. So much has been accomplished over the course of the year, including a very focused and deliberate exploration of what the future looks like for patient care. And the result, is our new Vision, Mission and Values. Together, they make up our common principles that will guide us forward, each and every day, as we serve our patients." Along with the new Vision, Mission and Values comes a refreshed visual identity. "From the beginning, we wanted our new visual identity to reflect the diversity of our institutions with bold, vibrant colours that stand out with confidence and clarity," said Mr. Mapa. "I think that we've accomplished that with our new logo -it is a terrific reflection of who we are." Sinai Health System will move forward with building a system that reflects the changing needs of patients, while continuing to provide the very best patient-centred care for patients and families.
