Advocate Health Purpose & Commitments

Advocate Health is redefining how, when and where care is delivered. Our Purpose & Commitments create the framework for building our culture, the way we do things together, for all teammates as one Advocate Health. These guiding elements establish the foundation for our teammates' behaviors, define the expectations for their work and contribute to our overarching culture across the enterprise. Our Purpose & Commitments are a critical aspect of The Advocate Way, our distinct approach and philosophy that differentiates us. It encompasses the way we work together as an organization. Rooted in the intersections of our culture and strategy, The Advocate Way incorporates what we do and how we make our teammates, patients and communities feel.  

As we redefine care, we are setting the standard nationwide for an improved model of health care. We are rethinking methods of care delivery to reach more people and bringing human kindness to every step of their health journey. Our dedication to elevating health care for every individual, every teammate and every community is unwavering. We won't stop until everyone – no matter who they are or where they come from – has the possibility to live well. And because of this, we are redefining why we exist, our purpose as an organization and how we make it happen together as one.

Our Purpose: From discovery to everyday moments, we’re redefining care – for you, for us, for all.  

Our Commitments are the promises our teammates make to fulfill our Purpose.  

  • Lift Everyone Up: We believe everyone matters and create spaces where all belong and can thrive.  
  • Lead the Way: We chart new paths to achieve the extraordinary.  
  • Think Boldly Together: We collaborate with humility, turning the best ideas into new possibilities.  
  • Embrace the Unknown: We drive change through fearless curiosity and unshakeable optimism.

Our Purpose & Commitments are deeply interconnected with other key elements for the organization, including our strategy, REWIRE 2030.  Aligning these efforts enables us to deliver on our promises to our teammates, patients and communities, and execute on transforming how, when and where care is delivered. Simply put, our Purpose is the “why” that drives the “how” and “what” of strategy.  The stronger our organizational culture is, the better positioned we’ll be to establish new and improved standards of care for all. When our strategy, purpose and commitments are in perfect harmony, we don’t just adapt to the world – we transform it.
