Focused on the greatest health needs in our region
As the largest not-for-profit healthcare system in northeast Indiana, Parkview Health reinvests its resources into services and programs that directly support the health and well-being of the communities we serve. In this way, we invest in you.
Every three years, Parkview Health conducts a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) to identify the most significant health needs in our region and to guide the development of strategies that align with our mission, expertise, and resources. The CHNA is a vital tool in Parkview’s strategic planning process and informs the creation of our community health implementation plans. Findings were also presented to community organizations and local leaders for each county to support their planning efforts and to encourage opportunities for collaboration.
The most recent CHNA was completed in 2025 by the Health Services and Informatics Research (HSIR) team, affiliated with the Parkview Mirro Center for Research and Innovation. This assessment compiled a comprehensive set of secondary data (through Metopio), combined with community and provider survey data and focus groups, to identify the top five significant health needs across the Parkview Health service area. Based on the findings, mental health was selected as the systemwide shared health priority for 2025–2028.
More information about the CHNA process and the current community health priorities for Parkview-affiliated hospitals can be found in the individual Community Health Needs Assessment reports below.
