** About Us **
Henry Porter not only started a legacy in 1930 when he built Porter Adventist Hospital—he began a healthcare revolution the likes of which Denver had never seen.
Seventy-five years later, a new revolution is starting— one that is powered by over 1,200 Porter employees as we strive to create an unparalleled regional medical center that provides complex medicine in a spiritually healing environment. In honor of Henry’s legacy we are calling this evolution, “The New Porter."
Porter is part of Centura Health, which is Colorado's largest health care system. Together, Porter and other Centura Health organizations, serve people throughout the metro Denver area, Colorado Springs, Pueblo, Cañon City, and several mountain communities. Our system encompasses 12 hospitals, eight senior living facilities, and Centura Health at Home, which includes home care, hospice services, infusion, home medical equipment and oxygen services.
** Our Mission **
We extend the healing ministry of Christ by caring for those who are ill and by nurturing the health of the people in our communities.
Why our mission matters to you
Most mission statements may seem like platitudes, but ours really matters to us, and because it does, it makes a difference to you. It affects the quality of service and care you receive when we welcome you to Porter Adventist Hospital. Every single day, more than 1,200 Porter Adventist Hospital associates put our mission in motion in ways that truly make a difference.
Because we are a not-for-profit organization, we have no shareholders and no earnings to distribute - all of our resources go toward fulfilling our mission.
While our associates bring to their work some of the best skills healthcare has to offer, they also bring with them kind hearts, loving hands and innovative thinking. Ours is a calling like no other, where we strive to give you the best that science and spirit has to offer.
