Community Benefits

Partner With Us

As a charitable not-for-profit, Baystate Health is committed to our mission "to improve the health of the people in our community every day with quality and compassion." In fulfilling this mission, our investments as a community partner extend beyond the walls of our hospitals and aim to improve public health, increase access to health care, and advance medical knowledge, while improving quality of life.

In our efforts to make the greatest positive impact on the well-being of our community, we embrace a comprehensive definition of “health” – one that includes all the necessary elements for individuals and families in our community to thrive. Encompassed in this definition are social determinants, such as economic opportunity, affordable housing, quality education, safe neighborhoods, food security, social and racial justice, the arts, and culture. By actively developing community partnerships and working alongside our affiliated care providers, we can meet and improve the health and wellness needs of those we serve and those identified in our recent community health needs assessment.

Our commitment to improving the lives and health of our community is demonstrated through our annual Community Benefits Investments, Community Sponsorships, Better Together Grant Programs, and Corporate Sponsorships. We invite you to partner with us and together we can meet our community benefits mission “to reduce health disparities, promote community wellness, and improve access to care for vulnerable populations."

Baystate Health and affiliated hospitals have a common community benefits mission.
