KMH envisions health services not only in a biomedical context but also in a social context. In accordance with the beliefs of Kapan Hospital, Kapan Hospital firmly believes that health services should empower the sick to fight all types of suffering. The hospital follows the principles that health services:

• should not aim at merely curing diseases, but also at removing human suffering;
• should be a mix of technology and human values;
• should not be denied to those who cannot buy services and those who do not seek the services;
• should be made available to the greater number of less privileged individuals in society
