The COPE Health Care Scholars program gives students an opportunity to gain firsthand experience in both clinical and administrative health care settings. "So many times a cool procedure would be happening and a nurse or a physician would come grab me and say, 'hey you have to watch this,'" said scholar Nadia Mrkaljevic.
About us
MultiCare is a not-for-profit health care system with roots that go back well over 100 years since the founding of Tacoma’s first hospital. Today, we are the largest community-based, locally governed health system in the state of Washington with more than 20,000 employees including employees, providers, and volunteers. We are a very different organization than we were just a few years ago — larger, more diverse, embracing the changes that come our way as health care continues to evolve. But our commitment to our mission — partnering for healing and a healthy future — and our dedication to the health of the many communities we serve remains constant and unwavering. Our core values of Respect, Integrity, Stewardship, Excellence, Collaboration and Kindness, serve as our guiding principles and impact every aspect of our organization, including how we provide patient care and what we expect from each other. MultiCare is also proud of our commitment to workforce diversity and culturally competent care. This commitment is led by our CEO and supported through employee education and community outreach.

Marie Brenden, 59, is an ARNP at MultiCare Rockwood Cancer Center has a record for a 270-pound bench press. She's also a grandmother who got a pacemaker in April. “It’s just lifting weights, but for me, it’s my stress management, because working in a cancer center, it can be sad,” she said. “This is really trivial compared with what my patients go through on a daily basis. They’re inspirational. They have a good sense of humor. It teaches me to appreciate being healthy and to take advantage of it, because you don’t know what’s coming tomorrow.”

Free lunches are available for children under 18, now through August 30th inside Mary Bridge Children’s Outpatient Center – Tacoma. “We eat first with our eyes, which means the presentation of food really matters,” says Erica Lewis, RD, health promotion program manager at the MultiCare Center for Health Equity & Wellness. “We put a lot of care into making meals that kids want to eat. In addition to offering a protein like turkey or peanut butter, the lunches will feature colorful sides of fruits and vegetables as well as milk.”
In partnership with U.S. Department of Agriculture Mary Bridge Children's is providing free summer lunches for children under 18, now through Aug. 30. “Many kids struggle to get their nutritional needs met in the summer months because they often lose access to free or reduced-priced meals at school,” says Erica Lewis, RD, health promotion program manager at the MultiCare Center for Health Equity & Wellness. “Mary Bridge Children’s aims to fill that nutritional gap with healthy food that kids enjoy.” For more information: https://multica.re/4etdNJP

At MultiCare Yakima Memorial Hospital, Veteran Advocacy Program manager Matthew McCay explains how a recent query into patient records identified 70 veterans who met the criteria for diagnoses possibly related to Agent Orange exposure who weren’t receiving applicable health benefits. Matthew is now on a mission to find every veteran in his community and ensure they’re receiving the care and benefits they deserve. Identifying veteran status goes beyond benefits, though — it plays an important role in understanding overall physical and mental well-being.

We are proud to share our contribution to the MultiCare Advanced Primary Care Clinic! We meticulously selected pieces to create a welcoming lounge and supportive registration areas. Our dedicated exam room and behavioral health room furnishings ensure privacy and specialized care, and the community spaces and patient education areas foster a collaborative environment for learning and managing conditions. It was a pleasure to work with Perkins&Will, MultiCare Health System and MillerKnoll on this endeavor. Here’s to enhancing patient care through thoughtful design!
