Mission

The mission of the Health Care District of Palm Beach County is to ensure access to a comprehensive health care system and the delivery of quality services for the residents of Palm Beach County.

We work to accomplish our mission through various programs and services, including:

• Saving lives in the “Golden Hour” through our integrated Trauma System
• Covering the uninsured with programs such as Vita Health and Maternity Care
• Keeping children healthy by staffing registered nurses in our public schools 
• Offering skilled nursing care at the Edward J. Healey Rehabilitation and Nursing Center 
• Providing acute care in underserved areas through Lakeside Medical Center on the southern shores of Lake Okeechobee

We are dedicated to the health of our community and committed to providing high-quality health care services to all residents of Palm Beach County in a fiscally responsible manner.
