The common goal of remaining independent and moving healthcare forward in our communities is at the heart of everything SHO does.

Why Independence Matters

Thriving independent health solutions are vital to our communities. We believe that when decisions are made locally, employees and patients benefit. Preserving our independence keeps care local, where it belongs.​ Independence also fosters closer relationships with communities, along with a better understanding of community needs. ​

​SHO recognizes the importance of hospital independence and provides:

  • Economies of scale without mandates of a large system
  • Benefits of collective stability while allowing care to remain local and preserving deep-rooted ties to hospital communities

“VHO is thrilled about this strategic partnership with Suburban Health Organization. This collaboration represents a significant milestone for both of our organizations. We believe this partnership will open new doors, foster innovation, and drive mutual growth. We are excited about the opportunities ahead and look forward to a successful journey together,” expressed Carly Salamone, President of Vantage Healthcare of Ohio.
