Supporting Our Mission
The Family Health West Foundation is driven by a singular, powerful mission: to enhance the daily experience of every patient under our care. This guiding principle serves as the cornerstone of our organization, shaping our decision-making process and overall approach to healthcare.
Our foundation’s philosophy transcends traditional healthcare metrics, focusing instead on the tangible impact we can make in patients’ lives. Rather than prioritizing financial considerations or the hospital’s bottom line, we evaluate each decision through the lens of patient well-being.
Featured Entertainment: Yachty by Nature
Get ready to “Come Sail Away” with America’s premier yacht rock band, Yachty by Nature! This exceptional six-piece band plays the finest groovy soft yacht rock tunes from the late 70’s and early 80’s. You’ll enjoy expert musicality, groove, and improvisational flavor as they ignite classic vinyl cuts from Michael McDonald, Hall and Oates, Boz Scaggs, Steely Dan, Toto, Christopher Cross, and more.
Yachty by Nature delivers the smooth pleasure cruise experience with captivating performers like Scotty McYachty & Julie McCoy on vocals, Captain Carl, Wes Coast & Big Wave Dave locking down the rhythm section, and Pacific Rim on sax and jazz flute for nonstop fun!
