Mission:To identify and address the community's health and well-being
by creating a network based on collaboration, coordination and
partnering to improve the overall health of Linn County, Iowa.
Healthy Linn Care Network (HLCN) was founded in 1989 with the goal of
building partnerships to improve the health and well being of citizens
in Linn County. Over 100 organizations joined together to conduct the
Community Health Assessment in the mid-90's. Since that time, HLCN has
published two Community Health Plans – one in 1999 and, most recently,
2005. Charged with developing and maintaining collaborative networks
among health care providers, businesses and community agencies, HLCN
uses the Community Health Plan to identify and meet the wellness needs
of all those who live, learn and work in Linn County.

St. Luke’s is not a building. It is 3000 people all trying to live
their mission of "providing the healthcare we’d want our loved ones to
receive.” As a four-time winner of Top 100 hospital national awards
St. Luke’s consistently demonstrates itself as one of the best
hospitals in the country and we strive each day to get even better.
We’ve done that for 125 years and we will do it for the next 125. We
are known for our heart and emergency services, a commitment to
education, and a growing number or nationally recognized programs in
women and children’s care, rehabilitation, and behavioral health.
Where we excel is not just providing better outcomes for patients in
typical hospital services, but in caring for large numbers of patients
in “orphan” services many hospitals do not wish to offer. At the same
time St. Luke’s consistently serves as a quality and technology
innovator introducing programs like robotic surgery and physician
hospitalists to our region, working each day to make St. Luke’s that
“better place to be.”
