Welcome from the Administrator/CEO Mission/Vision/Core Values History and Overview of Services Hendricks Memorial Healthcare Foundation

WELCOME !

Dear HCHA Staff Member:

Welcome to Hendricks Community Hospital Association! HCHA is a charitable not-forprofit hospital association made up of community members who believe in the mission, vision and core values the association represents.

The information summarized in this handbook was developed in recognition and support of our values and beliefs. Central to these beliefs is our conviction to maintain the dignity of each individual and respect each person's contribution to the organization. We believe that individuals should be given the opportunity to develop both personally and professionally, as well as be encouraged to maintain professional standards. It is our sincere hope that this handbook reflects the value we place on each person who chooses to be a part of HCHA.

This handbook was developed to provide an overview of what you can anticipate as a member of the HCHA team, as well as define our expectations of employee performance and behavior. It contains only general information and guidelines. It is not intended to be an employment contract. It is not intended to be comprehensive or to address all the possible applications of, or exceptions to, the general policies and procedures described. For that reason, if you have any questions concerning eligibility for a particular benefit or the applicability to you of a policy or practice, please consult the Personnel Policy Manual retained in each department or contact the Human Resources Department.

We ask that you please review this manual and sign the enclosed Acknowledgement Form, which indicates your receipt of the handbook and your agreement to comply with its terms during your employment. Please note that any section that conflicts with state law may be invalidated without affecting the rest of the handbook. This information is reviewed periodically and will be modified as needed. We will make every effort to keep you updated on any changes.

Thank you for choosing to be a part of the HCHA team. We welcome your service, commitment, and contributions to our organization and look forward to having you as a valued team member.

Sincerely,

Jeff Gollaher Administrator/CEO
