We continuously strive to improve the health of the community we serve and become the provider of choice for Health Care delivery and education" (Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, 2012).

The ability to handle those challenges defines the effectiveness of the leader. In this interview, the main challenge pinpointed is the ability to provide high quality biomedical equipments while staying competitive in a market that lacks appropriate surveillance. In other words, maintaining the balance between high quality of the equipment that directly affects patients and profitability of the company. The leader stated that ethical values related to patients’ right to health are embedded in the organization’s culture. “We take responsibility of aligning ourselves with our humane side before our business side because if we want to only think of only maximizing profit the people who are losing are in need of the services” the CEO stated.
