“As part of our work, I have introduced our team to the “Quintuple Aim,” putting emphasis not only on patient satisfaction, decreasing costs/increasing revenue, and increasing quality but also enhancing the wellness of our staff and the joy in our work while working towards health equity. These are our guideposts in the important work we have to do. As a result, I have pushed for a reinvigorated Wellness Committee and creation of an Equity Plan for Jordan Health.” – Dr. Linda L. Clark We're SO proud to share and congratulate Health Foundation Board Member Dr. Linda L. Clark, President & CEO at Jordan Health, for being named to the RBJ 2024 Power 100 List for Health Care! The list includes individuals who have played a significant role in helping to improve the health of the Rochester community.
