The leaders of Cleveland founded City Hospital on that promise. And as we grew and became MetroHealth, we kept that promise, for 180 years. A few years ago, we made another promise to this community: We would rebuild our main campus hospital — the hospital for all people — so everyone in Cuyahoga County would have access to high-quality, affordable health care that heals and lifts them up. Plans are underway to reconstruct the West 25th Street campus. As signifi cant as this is, we know it’s not enough. We can do more. And we will. We will build a brighter future for this community, not just with bricks and steel, but with a broader — and deeper — commitment to our mission. As you’ll read in this annual report, we are improving our neighborhood, nurturing our community, promoting learning and working toward equality in health for everyone. And we plan to continue that — for another 180 years and beyond.
