When you or someone you love needs care, feeling safe and respected matters as much as healing itself.

At AdventHealth Avista, patients and families are cared for in an environment built on safety, transparency, and compassion. Being named a Leapfrog Top Teaching Hospital reflects that commitment, recognizing strong patient safety practices and a culture where caregivers are constantly learning how to provide better, safer care.

As a faith-based organization, AdventHealth is guided by a mission to extend the healing ministry of Christ by caring for the whole person — body, mind, and spirit. This recognition is one way we honor the trust placed in us and help patients feel supported, informed, and at peace throughout their care.

We’re grateful to our caregivers, physicians, and educators who show up with skill and heart every day.

For patients and families, feeling safe, heard, and well cared for is foundational to healing.

Caring for your whole health includes staying informed when conditions around you change. We believe knowledge supports peace of mind and helps you take meaningful steps to protect your body, mind, and spirit.

A Red Flag Fire Weather Warning means strong winds, low humidity, and dry vegetation are creating a higher risk for fast-moving wildfires. Fires can start easily and spread quickly, which is why extra awareness and caution matter right now.

For Mike Vos, caring for others isn’t just something he learned on the job. It’s woven into his family’s story. With a mother who is a longtime nurse, a father who served as a firefighter, and a sister in pharmacy, Mike grew up watching what compassion looks like in real time.

He found his own calling in supply chain — the behind-the-scenes work that makes seamless care possible. Over the past decade at AdventHealth, Mike has built trust, strengthened relationships, and learned how every supply, every delivery and every interaction helps someone feel supported in a moment that matters.

Now, as Director of Supply Chain at AdventHealth Avista, Mike leads with a simple philosophy: support the people who support our patients.

“I see myself as someone who removes barriers so caregivers can focus on what really matters,” he says.

His team shows up every day with that same heart. Whether navigating shortages, collaborating with clinical units, or managing a fully stocked storeroom, their work helps caregivers provide whole-person care with confidence and ease.

His philosophy is simple: When caregivers feel supported, patients feel it too.
