*About Vail Health*
Vail Health is a dynamic mountain healthcare system that combines the world-class care
you'd see in a big city with a small-town approach. Our history of pioneerism inspires us to
roll up our sleeves in a collaborative and innovative spirit. We take pride in being an
independent healthcare system that has the flexibility to make decisions that directly
impact our communities.
Elevated standards are the cornerstone of our approach. As a pillar of our community, Vail
Health puts as much emphasis on mental health as we do on physical health. We
recognize the value of integrated teamwork to provide the same level of personalized care
we'd give an elite athlete, neighbor, or family member.
Joining Vail Health means becoming part of something greater than yourself. We support
your journey, providing curated benefits that foster your personal and professional growth.
Together, we make a meaningful impact on the lives of our employees, patients, and local
communities.
*Expanded Reach & Specialized Services*
Vail Health has expanded its reach with care facilities in Avon, Edwards, Eagle, Gypsum,
and Basalt. Our main hospital in Vail offers a wide range of services, including emergency
care, surgery, childbirth, and imaging, all within a modern facility that reflects our
dedication to innovation and excellence.
The Shaw Cancer Center, a premier oncology facility in Edwards, provides comprehensive
cancer care—ranging from radiation and infusion to supportive therapies—set in a serene,
mountain environment.
In 2025, we also opened the Precourt Healing Center, a state-of-the-art Behavioral Health
facility offering both inpatient and outpatient services to meet the growing mental health
needs of our mountain communities with compassionate, integrated care.

development.
• *Partnerships with World-Class Providers*: The Steadman Clinic and Vail-Summit
