As a not-for-profit organization, we reinvest our resources back into the community. Sutter hospitals serve more of the Medi-Cal patient population in Northern California than any other health system.* We proudly fund and partner with community programs to help ensure those in need have access to care and social services.
At Sutter Health, whether we deliver care in hospitals, clinics, medical offices, or other patient care centers, we focus on providing the best possible service to our patients. Supporting a diverse, inclusive, and culturally competent workforce is at the heart of our mission to give all patients the personalized care they deserve.
Nearly 46% of Sutter Health’s 53,000 employees are ethnically diverse.
More than 2,000 Sutter Health employees have completed training to serve as interpreters for patients who speak languages other than English.
Headquartered in Sacramento, we provide coordinated care to more than 3 million Californians. Our integrated network has created a connected model of care that is delivering coordinated healthcare when, where and how people need it. We are committed to ensuring healthcare is accessible and inclusive to all by offering comprehensive services and quality health programs tailored to the diverse communities we serve.
In 2017, Sutter Health established a system-wide Military and Veteran’s Inclusion Resource Group (IRG) which has been embraced by the organization’s senior leadership. The purpose of the IRG is to tap into the passions and care for the interests of its military and veteran staff members. Furthermore, policies have been in place at Sutter Health or its affiliates that allow for military leave as well as supplemental pay from Sutter Health to address any pay differential gaps during deployments.
The Sutter Health IRG honors it's military and veteran’s and their families by performing flag-raising ceremonies on Veteran’s Day at locations throughout Sutter Health’s many affiliates. Furthermore, Sutter Health has donated over $300,000 over the past several years to military and veteran causes including but not limited to the Fisher House, Blue Star Moms, Disabled American Veterans, the American Red Cross, Rivers of Recovery, and the USO.
