General Info

You don't need to look very hard to notice the impact Aera Energy LLC has made on the San Joaquin Community Hospital (SJCH) Grossman Burn Center and the greater Bakersfield community. Not only is it right there on the side of the building, it's seen in the lives of the hundreds of burn survivors the facility has treated. In 2009, Aera Energy sponsored a $300,000 donation through The Aera Energy Fund of the Kern Community Foundation. The generous donation helped fund the building of The Aera Clinic, the outpatient portion of SJCH's Grossman Burn Center, which opened in June of 2009. For Aera, the chance to help bring high-quality burn care to Bakersfield was an opportunity the company simply could not pass up. Due to the nature of burn injuries, extensive rehabilitation is often a must, even for less extensive burns. Prior to the opening of the The Aera Clinic, burn survivors and their families were forced to drive more than 100 miles to received specialized burn treatment.
