What are the next steps?
Paperwork has been submitted to the California Department of Public Health to transfer the hospital license to Adventist Medical Center - Reedley. The approval process is expected to take several weeks.
Once the license change is approved, signs on the hospital and clinics will change. The clinics will be renamed Adventist Health / Community Care because they will be part of a network of clinics in the Central Valley. Phone numbers and hours of operation will not change. The new clinic names are below.

What does it mean to be 'faith-based'?
For Adventist Health, being "faith-based" means that our mission, vision and values—and by extension, all we do—are rooted in our faith in God and His love for us.
Because God loves us, we share His love with others. Because He gives His best to us, we give our best to others.
He created us as physical, mental and spiritual beings—whole persons—so we understand that caring for others means more than physical healing but mental and spiritual healing as well.
This whole-person philosophy has been an important aspect of Adventist health care since it began more than 150 years ago in Battle Creek, Mich. Seventh-day Adventist health care now circles the globe with more than 500 hospitals and clinics, including 17 Adventist Health hospitals and more than two dozen clinics on the West Coast and in the Central Valley.
Do you have to be an Adventist to work for Adventist Health? Do you have to be Christian?
No. We welcome people of all faiths who are committed to the mission and values of Adventist Health to share God’s love through compassionate whole-person health care. Adventist hospitals in the United States employ nearly 100,000 people, including 2,500 in the Central Valley, and the vast majority are not Seventh-day Adventists.
Will employees be required to pray?
Prayer is a personal choice and it is not mandatory. We want our hospital and clinics to be a welcoming place for prayer and spiritual life, and we welcome employees to pray with patients and co-workers if they feel comfortable.
Prayer is an important part of Adventist Health because we believe that spiritual care and health care are intrinsically linked. We invite employees to grow spiritually—whatever their beliefs.
Will the hospital cafeteria become vegetarian?
No, the cafeteria will not be vegetarian. Adventist Health embraces the biblical Levitical teaching regarding diet. As at the Adventist Medical Centers in Selma and Hanford, we will not serve pork or shell fish. It is important to us that we are consistent with our health and wellness messages as well as respectful of the choices made by other faith traditions such as our Jewish and Muslim brothers and sisters.
Will clinics have to close on Saturdays? Will the network participate in community events on Saturdays?
Saturday clinic schedules will be decided on a case-by-case basis according to patient needs. We will continue to participate in Saturday community events that respond to the health needs of our community.
Again, similar to our practice in Selma and Hanford, on Saturdays we will focus on direct patient care support and experience while reducing or closing many administrative and non-direct patient care operations. We believe this follows the example of Christ, who celebrated Sabbath as a day of healing and rest.
