Adventist Health is a Seventh-day Adventist nonprofit organization[2] headquartered in Roseville, California, that operates facilities in 3 states across the Western United States.
History
[edit]In the 1960s, the General Conference transferred ownership of the hospitals in the United States to the local conferences. In 1972, the General Conference centralized the management of its healthcare facilities, creating Adventist Health Systems.[3] The conferences then transferred the hospitals to the system, creating the entities Northwest Medical Foundation, and Adventist Health Services at the union level.[3]
In 1980, they merged creating Adventist Health System/West, which changed its name to Adventist Health in 1995.[3] The headquarters for Adventist Health was in Los Angeles,[3] Adventist Health worried about the smaller hospitals being neglected, so the headquarters was moved to Roseville, California in 1982. In 2019, a new Roseville shared service center replaced the corporate office that opened in 1985.[3]
In 2019, its headquarters was among six organizations awarded the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award for Performance Excellence.[4]

Mission and values
Adventist Health's mission is to live God’s love by inspiring health, wholeness, and hope.[6] This statement reflects the organization's commitment to providing care that extends beyond physical treatment to foster comprehensive well-being. The organization emphasizes whole-person care, addressing physical, mental, spiritual, and social wellness as interconnected aspects of health.[1] This approach is rooted in the Seventh-day Adventist Church's heritage, where principles of health as a holistic pursuit were established in the 19th century through teachings on balanced living and preventive wellness.[7] Core values guiding Adventist Health are: Be love, Be a force for good, Be a mission owner, Be welcoming, Be curious, and Be brilliant.[6] These values encourage loving and caring for others, acting courageously for positive change, taking ownership of roles and contributions, creating inclusive environments, fostering continuous learning, and leveraging talents for excellence in care. They influence daily operations by integrating faith-inspired care that respects diverse beliefs, offering spiritual support without proselytizing to all patients regardless of background.[8]Scope and operations
Adventist Health is headquartered in Roseville, California, where a new shared services campus was completed and opened in 2019 to support its administrative operations.[9][10] The organization operates as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) integrated health system, serving communities across California, Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington in more than 90 locations.[1][11] In April 2024, it expanded its network by acquiring Sierra Vista Regional Medical Center and Twin Cities Community Hospital from Tenet Healthcare.[12] This geographic reach enables it to deliver a comprehensive model that combines acute care, outpatient services, and preventive health initiatives, aligning with its mission-driven focus on whole-person wellness.[1] Adventist Health employs approximately 38,000 care providers and staff, supporting a broad array of healthcare delivery.[1] In 2024, its operations handled 133,362 hospital admissions, 844,579 emergency department visits, 6,257,529 outpatient visits, 3,067,708 clinic visits, and 248,160 home health and hospice visits, demonstrating its significant scale in patient care.[1]| Key Operational Statistics (2024) | Volume |
