Los Alamos Medical Center (LAMC) this week published its community benefit report for the 2025 calendar year. This annual report outlines the various ways the hospital is working to support the health and economic vitality of Los Alamos and our greater region as part of its mission of making communities healthier®.

“Always striving to advance our mission is how we succeed as a community leader. We are dedicated to supporting those who entrust us with their care, investing in our region’s overall well-being and making a positive impact on our region,” said Bob Singletary, interim chief executive officer (CEO) of LAMC. “This year’s report highlights our continued commitment to providing high-quality, compassionate care close to home.

Los Alamos Medical Center’s 2025 community benefit report highlights its continued efforts to meet the growing healthcare needs of its community through welcoming new providers, adding and expanding service lines, and continually investing in its facilities and healthcare technology. For example, in 2025, LAMC added providers in specialties including general surgery, gastroenterology, emergency medicine, orthopedics, sports medicine, and urology; and made more than $1.1 million in capital improvements.

In 2025, the hospital distributed more than $25.3 million in salaries, wages and benefits for its 237 employees, while contributing more than $100,000 in professional development and tuition assistance so all its employees can have the opportunity to learn, grow and improve the care they provide their patients.
