Candidate for
Board of Directors; Salinas Valley Memorial Healthcare System

As you know, we are currently in an unprecedented time in healthcare--a time that requires experienced leadership that knows how to make the tough decisions necessary to ensure the future of healthcare for our region. Now more than ever, we need leadership that knows the ins and outs of healthcare finance, and can navigate this organization to a successful future.

That's why we collectively decided to seek reelection to the hospital board--because we want to make sure our local health services are protected. With so many uncertainties in healthcare, now is the time for continued stability on the SVMH Board. The three of us have a combined 37 years of service to the Hospital District, with a proven track record of success for our hospital and our region. During our tenure Salinas Valley Memorial engineered the plan that stabilized Natividad Medical Center, and we have been able to support key initiatives in areas such as research, patient safety, and quality.

We will continue to work on behalf of our community to maintain exceptional health care quality, and expand access to services while reducing the cost of care. We appreciate your support.
