Cottage Health by the Numbers
Cottage Health is a private, not-for-profit community organization. Our sole purpose is to provide outstanding medical care to the communities we serve.
Together our hospitals—in Santa Barbara, Goleta, and the Santa Ynez Valley—provide a range and quality of services rarely found in communities of our size, and are consistently among the most efficiently managed healthcare providers in California.
A volunteer board of directors from the community provides strategic direction and fiscal management of the System. Board members are not paid for this service, and they contribute generously to support our hospitals.
