Living the Mission

We are celebrating Jane Hester, Rehab Front Office Coordinator, as our Service Excellence Award recipient for living out our mission of Extending the Healing Ministry of Christ.

When a patient shared she had no food, limited resources and no transportation, Jane took immediate action. She rallied her team, coordinated support and personally ensured the patient had nourishing food to last through the holiday weekend. Even after her shift ended, Jane went the extra mile, delivering the food herself with care and compassion.

Jane’s actions beautifully reflect our Love Me Service Standard and remind us what it means to care for the whole person. Thank you, Jane, for making our patients feel seen, supported and at home. 💙

Celebrating care WNC families trust.

We’re proud to recognize our 2025 Patient Experience Award winners across AdventHealth Medical Group locations in Western North Carolina. This year, 21 of our patient care locations were chosen as locations that patients consistently say they would recommend to the people they love most.

For patients, this recognition means something simple and important: care you can feel confident in. It reflects teams who listen closely, communicate clearly and care for the whole person — not just a condition or appointment.

These clinics achieved top quartile performance in Likelihood to Recommend Practice from June 2024 through June 2025, based on patient feedback. That trust is earned one interaction at a time, through safety, compassion and respect.

To the patients and families who choose AdventHealth in North Carolina: thank you for trusting us with your care. And to our teams, thank you for living our mission to extend the healing ministry of Christ and helping every person feel whole — in body, mind and spirit.

The holidays at AdventHealth Polk were filled with moments that reminded us what truly matters.

We paused to honor and remember at our annual Memorial Tree, shared laughter and creativity during our Gingerbread House Competition, and came together as one team for an It’s a Wonderful Life-themed dinner that celebrated connection, gratitude and purpose.

These traditions are meaningful because of the people behind them. Our team members show up each day with compassion, faith and a commitment to caring for the whole person. This season was a reflection of that heart and a reminder that it really is a wonderful life when we care for one another.

Thank you to every team member who lives out our mission of Extending the Healing Ministry of Christ and helps our community feel whole.

The North Carolina Supreme Court has declined to take up the final appeal challenging AdventHealth’s Certificate of Need for a new hospital in Weaverville. This decision clears the way for us to move forward with plans to expand access to high quality whole-person care in Western North Carolina.

As this process moves ahead, we also remain focused on the community’s growing needs. A public hearing for AdventHealth’s separate 129-bed Certificate of Need application is scheduled for Tuesday, December 16, providing another opportunity for community input on the future of care in the region.
