Community Health System is dedicated to addressing the diverse and evolving healthcare needs of the people of California's Central Valley. As a locally owned, not-for-profit organization, our customers, the patients, are at the very heart of everything we do. We understand that our community is comprised of a large, diverse population whose needs are different from past generations, which is why we have grown to become the region's largest private employer and healthcare provider. Our mission is simple yet profound: 'to better the lives of all those we serve'. This isn't just a statement; it's our calling, compelling us to provide top-tier care to everyone, regardless of their income level or social standing. We are led by local leaders and physicians who are deeply invested in the well-being of central California, ensuring our strategies and services are tailored to the unique challenges and issues of the San Joaquin Valley.
Our patients benefit from a comprehensive, integrated healthcare network designed for accessibility and excellence. This network includes three main pillars: our hospitals, our physician network, and our health insurance plan. Community Medical Centers operates four acute-care hospitals, including the flagship Community Regional Medical Center, which is home to the only Level I Trauma Center and comprehensive burn center between Los Angeles and Sacramento. This ensures that patients with the most critical needs receive the highest level of care close to home. We also operate a dedicated cancer institute, a behavioral health center, and numerous other outpatient and long-term care facilities. Our health plan, Community Care Health, is one of the Valley's largest commercial HMOs, providing members with access to a vast network of providers. By continually expanding our facilities, like the recent multi-year expansion of Clovis Community Medical Center, we demonstrate an unwavering commitment to investing in the technology, infrastructure, and people required to meet the healthcare needs of our community for generations to come.
