Program accomplishments

  • Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital is a 48-bed acute-care hospital located in the City of Goleta. In 2024 the Hospital had 2,952 patient days and served 68,082 outpatients, including emergency services to 24,885 patients. The Hospital provides a wide array of inpatient and outpatient services, including but not limited to cardiac, orthopedic, wound care, breast care and emergency services. Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital is diligent to ensure that all patients have adequate access to healthcare. All patients who do not present with insurance are automatically screened for eligibility in government health programs and are assisted in applying for financial assistance if the patient does not qualify for any other assistance. Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital provides critical funding for community health, financial assistance programs, and external grants, while also realizing shortfalls in Medicare, Medi-Cal, and indigent care. External grants were provided which aimed at specific community needs for at risk populations (indigent health; substance abuse recovery; elderly; family counseling). In addition, the hospital provides support of nursing education, health fairs, and the provision of flu shots to the community. In 2024 the hospital spent over $15.4 million on all community benefit programs.
