Church Affiliation
We owe much of our heritage and organizational success to the Seventh-Day Adventist Church , which has long been a promoter of prevention and whole person care. Inspired by our belief in the loving and healing power of Jesus Christ, we aim to bring physical, mental and spiritual health and healing to our neighbors of all faiths.
Every individual, regardless of his/her personal beliefs, is welcome in our facility. We are also eager to partner with members of other faiths to enhance the health of the communities we serve.
While Adventist Health's holdings are based solely on the West Coast, Seventh-day Adventist Health Care spans the entire United States.
Interested in learning more about Seventh-day Adventism? Adventist Health has a Church Leadership Manual that briefly explains the beliefs of the Adventist Church. To request a copy, please call our Pastoral Care Department at 661-869-6629.
