Keeping our patients healthy is more than a priority ... it's a pledge. A shared promise made by every one of our people. To keep our hospital safe, to keep our patients at ease, and to always do what's right for our community. Because taking care of the Central Valley is what we've pledged to do.
Now more than ever, patient experience is at the forefront of our care delivery. While we know things look different than they did a few months ago, due to COVID-19, our promise to our patients has always been and continues to be to provide high quality, compassionate care.
With safety being of one of our core values and a top priority, we have enhanced protocols in place to protect you and our caregivers as we prepare to resume select surgeries, procedures and other critical services. Things like designating COVID-Free Zones to minimize any risk of infection, performing temperature screenings of all patients, colleagues, physicians, visitors and requiring masks to be worn by everyone throughout our facilities are just a few of the ways we are taking steps to a healthier environment. That is our pledge.
