Adventist Health Mendocino Coast and Mendocino Coast Health Care District Restructure

Adventist Health has informed the Mendocino Coast Health Care District (MCHCD) of its desire to restructure the terms of the agreement to provide care for the community. Since Adventist Health took over management of the hospital in 2020, local residents have had access to a growing number of services. It remains our goal to continue being an integral part of delivering quality healthcare on the Coast.

“The Mendocino Coast Healthcare District welcomes the opportunity to strengthen our partnership with Adventist Health. We recognize that this is an appropriate time in our five-year relationship to reevaluate the terms of our partnership,” said Paul Garza, Chair of the Mendocino Coast Healthcare District.

Adventist Health and MCHCD look forward to collaborating on a path forward to expand access to care. Over the next 60 days, the two organizations will work through the details of a new agreement.

“Adventist Health has a long history of serving rural communities and is grateful to have played a pivotal role in sustaining care on the Coast. Together, we have improved the quality, safety, and patient experience in our local hospital and clinics,” states Eric Stevens, President of Adventist Health Northern California Network.

Both organizations remain committed to providing high-quality healthcare on the Coast and will strive to keep the community informed about the progress of the new agreement.
