The Human Spirit

Our focus on the Whole Person – the body, mind and spirit – is what continues to set AdventHealth apart. And nowhere does the human spirit shine brighter, with more wattage, than in our patients, our partners and the healthcare professionals who care for us all.

You won’t find the human spirit in any anatomy books, but we know it when we see it. It’s tenacity, beauty, courage, creativity, kindness. It’s the doctor searching to find an anomaly in the bloodwork.

The athlete determined to recover from knee surgery before the start of the season. The grandfather fighting his way back from heart failure. The child imagining a better world and believing we will make it so.

The human spirit lives in us, but it also moves between us. We can’t see it or hold it. It is crafted and guided by Divine Design. We only need to recognize it in someone else to realize it in ourselves.

And – as our community continues to show us – its power and impact are beyond measure.
