Our goal of clinical excellence is part of our quest to be one of the best healthcare organizations in the country. While measuring ourselves against national standards, we keep quarterly report cards to monitor our progress and improvements. Associates throughout our system focus on these goals to see where improvement is needed.

Our Clinical Education Services department provides online and classroom education to clinical professionals to help them on the road to excellence. Education involves information on new procedures, patient treatment and accreditation.

Methodist Healthcare's affiliation with the University of Tennessee Health Science Center (UTHSC) assists us on our way to excellence. Top hospitals all over the country are associated with medical schools, and UTHSC has a tradition of graduating well-trained medical talent.

The faculty and residents at UTHSC are involved in a mutually beneficial relationship with Methodist. They have a top-notch facility to train and practice their profession, while our patients get the latest and most up-to-date medical information and research.
