Natividad Medical Center has been working with Raimi and Associates since November 2022 on the development of its three-year strategic plan. The plan has been completed and presented to the Natividad Board of Trustees and the Monterey County Board of Supervisors in December 2024. Natividad Medical Center desires to continue its relationship with Raimi and Associates as we enter the implementation phase of the strategic plan. Amendment Number 3 will allow us to finalize and complete the strategic dashboards with on-going technical assistance from Raimi and Associates and will assist leadership with development of the implementation plan for the first year of the plan. Once priorities have been established, Raimi and Associates will create an implementation update template that staff will use to monitor activities and track progress. This will ensure continued success of the strategic plan.
