A Time for Gratitude

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, a holiday that serves as a reminder to express gratitude and spend time with loved ones. On behalf of our Hospital Council team, we want to take this time to honor our hospitals and all health care workers for their hard work and dedication. Their deep commitment to serving those in need is truly inspiring, and it echoes our mission of ensuring access to health care for all Californians.  

Reflecting on events of the past year, we’ve seen hospitals cut back on service lines, continue to struggle financially, and survive wildfires and seismic events. Despite all of the challenges and difficulties our communities have faced, health care workers have continued to show up for their patients year-round. To all the health care workers in the Hospital Council region and beyond — thank you for your dedication and service to others. Your devotion is truly inspiring.

Hospital Council remains committed to our mission of ensuring access to quality health care for all Californians. While Thanksgiving reminds us to honor the people and things for which we are grateful, it is equally important to remember to express this gratitude year-round.  

On behalf of the Hospital Council team, we wish you and your loved ones a happy and safe Thanksgiving holiday!
