Why Choose National Jewish Health
Throughout the next 10 years, National Jewish Health will seek to be at the forefront of a new era in medicine. Our number one priority continues to be our patients through clinical care and research done on their behalf. We seek to transform research and patient care from reactive to being both proactive and personalized. This will help us predict, prevent and detect diseases and intervene early to keep people healthy before illness interrupts their lives.
Our basic commitment to science as the basis from which we will perform research and treat disease will lead to significant benefit for physicians and patients throughout the world.
Mission: Our Mission since 1899 is to heal, to discover and to educate as a preeminent health care institution. We serve by providing the best integrated and innovative care for patients and their families; by understanding and finding cures for the diseases we research; and by educating and training the next generation of health care professionals to be leaders in medicine and science.
