Talk:Gundersen Health System

This page sounds like it was copied and pasted straight from Gunderson's website. It also sounds like an advertisement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.31.144.92 (talk) 02:32, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

I agree, there seems to be some elements of advertisement present. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.42.50.221 (talk) 02:06, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

Suggested Edits to Gundersen Health System page

Hi Wikipedia editors, I have a COI as a marketing professional for Gundersen Health System and would like to request an update to reflect our new brand, Emplify Health, based on verifiable information. I understand the importance of maintaining neutrality and verifiability on Wikipedia and will not edit the article directly. Below is the proposed update to the “Location” section of this article, including the necessary citations.

Proposed update:

In April 2024, the two regional healthcare organizations officially announced they would continue serving patients under the unified brand Emplify Health. The new brand is a reflection of their commitment to amplify empathy and care in their respective communities. The merged organization employs over 16,000 people, operates 11 hospitals along with more than 100 clinics, provides care to 67 cities and rural communities and offers over 200 healthcare services.

Thanks in advance for any help reviewing these proposed edits.

If someone can provide me with the GIS data, GeoJSON, CSV, or Shapefile info, I could easily make that with QGIS. Wikideas1 (talk) 15:49, 11 August 2025 (UTC)

@Wikideas1: I noticed a request for GIS, GeoJSON, or shapefiles — but just to clarify, the edit I proposed is for the copy in the “Locations” section only. It doesn’t involve coordinates or map data. Open to suggestions or alternate copy if needed. Thank you! Elizabeth at Emplify Health (talk) 20:51, 11 August 2025 (UTC)

Suggested Edit to Gundersen Health System "Locations" section

Hi Wikipedia editors, I have a COI as a marketing professional for Gundersen Health System and would like to request an update to reflect our new brand, Emplify Health, based on verifiable information. I understand the importance of maintaining neutrality and verifiability on Wikipedia and will not edit the article directly.

Proposed Edit to “Locations” Section

Please add the following sentences to the end of the "Locations" section:

"On April 30, 2024, the organization announced a unified brand under the name Emplify Health. The name combines the words "empathy" and "amplify," according to the organization. The health system operates 11 hospitals and more than 100 clinics, providing primary care, specialty services and educational programs. It employs over 15,000 staff, including 1,400 clinicians and more than 4,500 nurses and providers. The system administers over 200 healthcare services. "
