Care & Access

Communities can’t thrive without access to health care — that’s why we believe care belongs where you are, wherever you live.

When you need care, you want to turn to someone you trust, and who better than your neighbors? As a community-focused, locally led health care organization, MultiCare is committed to being that neighbor you can turn to.

This means ensuring our teams are where you are. Through exciting new partnerships, regional expansions and the growth of existing service lines, we’re working to ensure care is available when and where you need it.

Some of our achievements and milestones in 2024:
