Our vision statement reflects the essence of what EMHS does and aspires to do for staff, patients and the community.
EMHS strategic and operational plans
The EMHS Strategic Plan 2021-25 sets out the future direction and aspirations for the health service, in alignment with the overarching health system vision for delivery of safe, quality, financially sustainable and accountable health care for all Western Australians.
The EMHS Operational Plan outlines collaborative actions which enable our health service to achieve and embed the goals of the Strategic Plan, in line with our vision and values. A new Operational Plan was launched in March 2024.

Our values


Our goals
Our people are the heart of EMHS and this goal is about providing a safe and supportive workplace that enables staff to thrive.
Consumers and community are central to everything we do, and our goal is to connect with them to understand their needs and deliver individualised, responsive care that will lead to better health outcomes.
The here and now focuses on using data and capabilities to maximise quality health care, be agile and proactive in care, and meet public sector obligations to the highest standards.
By having a future focus for a better tomorrow, this goal inspires us to identify, utilise and embed improvements from research, innovation and data to meet future care needs of consumers and the community.
