1 We are growing to better serve you

2 Message from Robert L. Lord, Jr. Martin Health System President and CEO Founded in 1939, Martin Health System has a rich history of providing care to residents of the Treasure Coast. What began as a single hospital in Stuart has blossomed into a comprehensive health care system. Today, Martin Health offers a full continuum of care ranging from preventive to acute and post-acute care across Martin and St. Lucie counties. With three hospitals and 13 locations spread from St. Lucie West to Hobe Sound, Martin Health seeks to be where our patients need us the most. Martin Health has been providing care to residents of St. Lucie County for more than 30 years, beginning with an urgent care center located on Port St. Lucie Boulevard in the 1980s. Since then we have expanded to three locations that include Tradition Medical Center a 90-bed acute care hospital in west Port St. Lucie St. Lucie West and a location in east Port St. Lucie on Tiffany Ave. At each of those locations we offer a wide range of services, including primary care and specialist physicians, rehabilitation, diagnostic imaging, lab draw stations and more. Our St. Lucie West facility includes a freestanding emergency department, which offers the same services as a traditional ER, as well as radiation oncology care for cancer patients. As west Port St. Lucie continues to expand, so have we. Tradition Medical Center, which opened in December 2013, has been incredibly busy since its inception. We designed the Medical Center to meet the growing needs of the surrounding community and provide the most efficient, effective and comfortable care possible to our patients and their families. This is our commitment to the people of Port St. Lucie. 2 Tradition Medical Center

6 Celebrating our Associates, Physicians and Volunteers With a wide range of health care services and approximately 4,000 associates, 900 volunteers and 400 affiliated physicians, Martin Health System offers unlimited opportunity for career growth and personal development. Since opening its doors in late 2013, the Medical Center has brought an influx of hospital employees, physicians, patients and visitors to the area, resulting in a significant economic impact on the surrounding community. As the expansion of Tradition Medical Center is completed in early 2018, Martin Health expects to add approximately 400 new jobs at the hospital. According to a recent study to assess Martin Health s economic impact on the community, these 400 new associates at Tradition Medical Center will earn approximately $22 million in annual income, with a total projected consumer spending of $18 million. Martin Health System offers its associates the opportunity to grow and realize personal aspirations. Visit our career center at martinhealth.org/careers. 6 Tradition Medical Center

7 Philanthropy at Martin Health System The Martin Health Foundation makes it possible for Martin Health System to achieve its mission of providing exceptional care, hope and compassion to every person, every time. Since its inception in 1983, the Foundation has raised over $97 million which has helped provide our community with access to cutting edge technologies and equipment, skilled nurses and physicians, and new service lines such as the Frances Langford Heart Center at Martin Health. Fundraising dollars make up more than 50 percent of the Martin Health System bottom line each year. As the only not-for-profit hospital system in St. Lucie and Martin counties, Martin Health relies on contributions to meet growing needs and provide the advanced health care our communities expect and deserve. Philanthropy has played a vital role in helping Martin Health satisfy the health care needs of Port St. Lucie, one of south Florida s fastest growing communities. Tradition Medical Center was designed to provide the most efficient, effective and comfortable care possible to its patients and their families. Martin Health s commitment to quality will continue as it strives to stay in step with Port St. Lucie s projected growth of 71 percent from 2010 to Without philanthropy, Tradition Medical Center would not be the state-of-the art facility that the community has come to know and expect.
