Our mission and values establish the foundation and create the framework for the work we do. They express our priorities in what we will achieve, and how we will achieve them.

As a member of Ascension Health, St.Vincent Health is a part of the largest Catholic, mission-driven, not-for-profit health care system in the United States.

Mission:

Rooted in the loving ministry of Jesus as healer, we commit ourselves to serving all persons with special attention to those who are poor and vulnerable. Our Catholic health ministry is dedicated to spiritually centered, holistic care, which sustains and improves the health of individuals and communities. We are advocates for a compassionate and just society through our actions and our words.

Core Values:

Service of the poor - Generosity of spirit, especially for persons most in need

This core value affirms that we demonstrate a special commitment to serving those who are physically, emotionally, spiritually and financially poor and vulnerable. We bring this to life by giving of ourselves generously and without hesitation. The following examples show how we exemplify this on a daily basis:

Reach out to those in need without hesitation or judgment.

Advocate for those whose voices need lifting.

Put the needs of others before our own.

Empower others to help themselves.

Build relationships and collaborations for a common good.
