Choose any organization with a vision, mission, and/or goal statements. Describe all three and evaluate them using the “triple bottom line” or any other tools from this week’s textbook reading. Reformulate one of the statements based on your evaluation. Family Circle of Care is a federally qualified health center. FCC operates medical clinics, a dental clinic, and a mobile medical clinic in East Texas and surrounding communities. Their mission and vision statement: “Through dedicated team members we will provide access to compassionate care for the whole family with unsurpassed quality. As a premier medical home of choice, we will enhance the lives we serve and inspire hope, through comprehensive healthcare for years to come.” (About | Family Circle of Care, n.d.) The FCC's clinics are located in tracts that have been classified as Medically Underserved Areas and Opportunity Zones. These tracts have high unemployment rates, low median household incomes, high rates of poverty, low percentages of residents holding advanced degrees, and high percentages of students who qualify for free or reduced lunches. The Jacksonville and Athens clinics are located in rural areas, whereas the five FCC clinics in Tyler are located in non-rural areas. Many patients face challenges to receiving healthcare, and FCC works to remove these barriers so that everyone can receive trauma-informed, culturally competent, reasonably priced healthcare. "Triple bottom line, emphasizes the three Ps of people (making sure that the actions of the organization are socially responsible), the planet(making sure organizations act in a way that promotes environmental sustainability), and traditional organization profits." (Ketchen & Short 2012) A simplified mission statement for FCC would be, through inspiring hope and providing comprehensive healthcare for years to come, we improve the lives we serve.
