Company Profile
Company Overview
Bartlett Regional Hospital is a municipally owned and operated, community based hospital with the mission of providing quality, patient centered, sustainable health care and health promotion for the people of Juneau and communities of northern Southeast Alaska. As the largest provider of hospital services in Southeast Alaska, Bartlett serves nearly 60,000 people in the region, many in communities inaccessible by road. The daytime population of Juneau swells between May and September as more than 1 million visitors arrive via the cruise ship industry, adding a significant seasonal impact to services and volumes at the hospital.
The hospital’s values are described by the acronym “CARE” – Courtesy, Accountability, Respect, and Excellence. Bartlett has a vision to be the best community hospital in Alaska, and considers three foundational principles to have a natural link to this vision: First, delivering value through a focus on quality, patient satisfaction and safety, while controlling costs; Second, improved information exchange with other healthcare system stakeholders, through an investment of between $4 and $7 million dollars to upgrade and enhance its information system over the next two years. Third, the desire to strengthen the culture at BRH to attain and maintain a status of pride in the wider Juneau service area through investments in workforce development, service line development and community outreach in an effort to positively impact the health status of the community.
Bartlett Regional Hospital boasts a modern and well-maintained facility and currently operates 73 beds with staffing of 420 FTEs including over 100 licensed nursing staff.
