Since 1891, Cottage Health has carried out its mission to serve the community by providing healthcare of the highest quality. From the very beginning, they have been here for you — growing from a 25-bed hospital to a nationally recognized healthcare provider.

They are proud to be your trusted healthcare partner and recognized as the destination for exceptional patient-centered care. Their doors have always been open 24/7 and they never turn anyone away, regardless of ability to pay. 

With their recent renovation of Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital’s Emergency Department (ED), they expanded capacity for care from 44,000 ED patient visits annually to more than 70,000 per year. Whether it’s their exclusive designation as the only cardiac STEMI receiving station on the South Coast or their commitment to stroke prevention and treatment, they move swiftly in emergencies when every minute counts. 

It takes a community to ensure that the very best care is available to everyone on the Central Coast. As a not-for-profit health system, Cottage Health relies on the generosity of the community to help them provide exceptional care to every patient. Generous contributors allow them to treat critically ill patients, provide their caregivers with the state-of-the-art equipment and resources they need, and support the community’s health and well-being.

I knew I’d have the best chance of recovery being close to home where people cared about me. I was right; Cottage provided outstanding care, and my care team felt like family.
