Duke Medicine transitioning to Duke Health
Improving health has always been the ultimate goal for Duke Medicine. With this historical and overarching aspiration in mind, Duke Medicine will be transitioning to Duke Health.
The decision to make this change stems from widespread deliberations involving faculty, staff, trainees, alumni, board members and others. A renewed focus on health clearly emerged as a core pursuit in our new strategic planning framework, which will be introduced at the end of January.
While this transition began yesterday, it will require many months to fully complete and convert all of the components (signage, websites, etc.) involved in the change to Duke Health. This change will not impact any of the current Duke Medicine branding standards as Duke Health will be represented in the exact same way that Duke Medicine has been represented with the simple difference being the inclusion of “Health” rather than “Medicine." More details to follow.
