We work to make healthcare services accessible and affordable for Oregon vineyard stewards and their families.

About us

¡Salud! Services strives to make healthcare accessible and affordable for vineyard stewards and their families. THE NEED Vineyard stewards often move from crop to crop, and their short-term work status means they’re ineligible for health insurance coverage. For those with insurance, plans may cover basic services but leave patients with high deductibles. Seeking care for minor issues becomes a question of necessity due to affordability. Language barriers make accessing services and navigating the complex medical world challenging. Missing work to prioritize preventative care, or even necessary care, means a significant strain on the family budget. These gaps in the traditional healthcare model can leave vineyard stewards and their families falling through the cracks. For nearly 30 years, ¡Salud! Services, a project of OHSU Health Hillsboro Medical Center funded 100% by philanthropy, has sought to eliminate these healthcare disparities. THE SOLUTION // Access: Collaborating with wineries and vineyard managers, we’re able to bring healthcare services directly to the worksite via our mobile medical unit. No need to find a ride to a doctor’s appointment. No need to take time off to seek care or sacrifice hourly wages. We travel approximately 6,000 miles each year to bring services to the community. // Affordability: All services brought to the vineyards are free to vineyard stewards and their families. ¡Salud! Services negotiates with physicians and community clinics on a patient’s behalf to keep medical bills low. In 2021, ¡Salud! paid over $180k to providers on patient’s behalf to help offset medical expenses ¡Salud! Services is backed by OHSU Health Hillsboro Medical Center and funded 100% by philanthropy. THE EVENTS ¡Salud! The Oregon Pinot Noir takes place every November in wine country featuring premiere wines made just for this event in support of vineyard stewards and their families. Join us this year November 11 & 12, 2022.
