In a two to three paragraph discussion post, identify key aspects of the selected healthcare setting, how their mission and values compare with the services they provide and their target populations, the type of staff who work there, any special or unique aspects of the healthcare setting, and your impression of the healthcare setting after reviewing their website. You don't need to identify the name of the healthcare setting just the type.
Side Note: Please include link to website used for the information you found so that I can APA cite it.
