Well, it never ceases to amaze me how many use nicknames when posting these negative comments.

My name is Dwight Christenson. I work for Adventist Health. Before that, I worked at Kaweah Delta. More importantly, I live in Tulare and am paying for the “missing” bond with my property taxes, like many of you.

I’ve been hospitalized in, and received great care at, both hospitals. I do not see any comments complaining about personal experience, only from reading online “reviews.” In the past, the hospital in Hanford has some problems and had much room to improve. Hospital Safety Grades now gives the hospital a B grade. Our hospitals in Selma and Reedley received an A grade.

As far as leaching off the Hillman clinics license, we don’t need to do that. We have a rural health licenses already, we don’t need another. We provide care to underserved areas, many of these areas are rural. However, we also have a hospital in Bakersfield, South Central Los Angeles, and Portland Oregon. None of these hospitals are in rural areas.

I am excited to see what we will bring to Tulare, and look forward to changing your perceptions.

I feel the board as usual bungled and made terrible choice of selecting Adventist health. I strongly feel it is too dangerous to continue this board and immediately start the proceeding to call back this board. It is just too dangerous to let them continue a single day as they keep repeating the mistakes one after other and follow wrong with terrible decision. Why can’t they contact stanford to start their setelite facility to have quality care.

Another bond is on the way people!They cannot even figure out where the money went to with the last bond. This is all too fishy. Somebody is the true driver of all of this chaos to close the hospital and get us to be so desperate to reopen the hospital with an unfavorable management company and now Adventist. I do not trust these board members. It went from bad to worse.

In reply to RCK.

The community may get behind another bond only if the audit reports were made public as to who and how 84M was misappropriated and then charges brought against those who were involved.

Loser mentality nets loser results. The same group would be on here complaining they can’t go a year until CMC comes in and won’t find another bond.
Losers can’t be choosers.

I would die in a gutter than to take treatment from this highly competent medical care from most Mediocre physicians in California. Does anybody in board looked that they Adventist is worst hospital in California and it consistently did so. All I are is to have enough money so that they can fly me by helicopter to some good hospital in San Jose , Los Angeles , PALO alto or San Francisco. I do not want to die like a guinea pig and neither I am an experimental animal.

Do you know that Adventist health is the rock bottom hospital in California. They charge the highest that any hospital charges with very poor staff. All they care is money , and soon people from Tulare would realize that they have been cheated in a big way , way more than the prior group.The best option to have a quality hospital running this place where people in Tulare like me deserve better healthcare. The reputation of Adventist is extremely poor where they have hired lot of poorly educated people who run the hospital as committee chiefs and harass those who really work hard for the people and care for their patients. I feel this is worst step taken by the board which is notoriously known to take all bad steps which have harmed the interests of people of Tulare.
