The Valley Medical Center Foundation is an independent, nonprofit organization that raises private donations from the community on behalf of Santa Clara Valley Medical Center and the entire Santa Clara Valley Health & Hospital System. The foundation purchases equipment and funds programs that improve the quality of care and promote access to medical treatment for all residents of California’s Santa Clara County.

Located in San Jose, California and founded in 1876, Santa Clara Valley Medical Center provides high quality, cost-effective medical care to all residents of Santa Clara County regardless of their ability to pay. Treatment for emergency medical care, trauma, burns and rehabilitation are just a few of the specialized treatments provided—in some cases the only such treatment in the region.

Our work with the Valley Medical Center Foundation ranges from implementing medication bar coding infrastructure the goal of reducing medication dispensing and patient matching errors, to supporting a transitional care program for heart failure patients.
