A Shared Vision

Providence has set a bold vision through its 2030 strategic direction: be the best place to give and receive care and to create a delivery model for the future, supported by innovation and positive change. Getting there calls for leadership with courage, compassion, a deep conviction for our Mission and care for our communities.  

Providence must re-invest in ministries to achieve this vision and uphold its commitment to the health and healing of our communities. To do so, Providence must focus resources. They engaged leaders from across Providence to ask, “Where can we do the greatest good?” and “Where can we be the best place to give and receive care? 

Through these conversations, Providence determined that a new owner is the right path for The Queen. 

NorthBay Health has demonstrated a clear understanding of and care for Providence caregivers and the Napa community, and a commitment to investing in the future of The Queen. 

For 67 years, NorthBay Health has been guided by a simple purpose: to care for its neighbors and strengthen the health of the communities it serves. As a California-owned, locally governed health system, NorthBay Health believes healthcare is strongest when decisions are made close to home, by people who understand the communities they serve and are accountable to them. That approach has shaped every decision over the past six decades, from expanding access to care to investing in services that meet the evolving needs of the region.

As a healthcare system rooted in the Solano, Napa and Yolo communities, NorthBay Health is able to respond quickly, thoughtfully, and meaningfully to what patients and families need most. They understand the importance of preserving local access to care, supporting physicians, nurses, and team members, and ensuring that hospitals remain strong, stable resources for the communities that depend on them.

That same philosophy is what NorthBay Health believes it can bring to the Napa community. The focus would be on strengthening what already exists—supporting the teams who serve patients every day, investing in the programs and services the community relies on, and ensuring that local healthcare continues to thrive. Healthcare is evolving rapidly across the country, and moments like this call for long-term vision and commitment. NorthBay Health’s goal is to help ensure that health care in Napa continues to grow stronger including expanding access to high-quality services, advancing innovation, and building a system that will serve the community for generations to come.

Above all, the goal is to ensure that the people of Napa continue to have access to exceptional, compassionate care from a health system committed to the region for the long term.
