DaVita Magazine, unlike most other corporate publications, is not about making DaVita more profitable or more efficient – it’s about observing, commemorating and honoring DaVita Village teammates (employees) through their own words and photos. It's also about highlighting the good works done by teammates through participation in the DaVita Village Programs. It is written by and for DaVita teammates, and it is our hope that the magazine brings the Village closer together.
