Patient Room
A century ago, Florence Nightingale wrote about the healing properties of natural light, fresh air and quiet.
Today, in tandem with countless medical advancements, the new Mills-Peninsula Medical Center takes a lesson from the past by creating a healing environment based on these simple elements, while always focusing on patients and their families.
“We’re not looking at just the clinical side of healing, but also the emotional side,” said Zani Weber, vice president of the patient experience. “It’s a more holistic way of caring for people.”
- All private rooms with natural light from a large window that faces outside or to an inner courtyard garden
- Family sleeping accommodations in every room
- No recycled air – ventilation with only outdoor air reduces risk of infection and helps keeps rooms smelling fresh
- Four healing gardens where sunshine and greenery are accessible without ever leaving the hospital
- Food is selected from a menu, cooked to order and served hot to the bedside on request

I haven’t seen anything here about parking. Is a garage within walking distance of the hospital? Can the hospital be reached from the garage without going outside (in the rain)?
Mr. Jarmy,
There is a parking lot adjacent to the hospital. Thanks for your interest.
According to recent Senior Focus News, there will be tours of the new hospital October 23, 24. How/where can one sign up for this?
The hospital tours will be November 20 & 21. You can sign up here: https://survey.sutterhealth.org/wsb.dll/s/dg1ca
