The assessment tools below are part of the Catholic Health Association's Living Our Promises, Acting on Faith initiative. These documents were originally intended as tools for converting descriptions of Catholic identity into measurable and accountable outcomes, to identify successful practices as hallmarks of the church's health care ministry, and to provide measures for ongoing performance improvement across the ministry gathered.
