As a Catholic organization, Saint Francis Health System seeks to reflect the presence of Christ in every personal and corporate encounter. Saint Francis Health System operates according to the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services and continually strives to integrate those values put forward in these directives.
We believe that each person is made in the image and likeness of God, and thus we pledge to deliver quality healthcare to all we serve.
Our mission charges us to provide a place and an environment that instills confidence, trust and hope. By demonstrating to a suffering person that his or her life is precious, we seek to help them discover its meaning and truth. The intended outcome of our combined efforts both for those we serve and for ourselves is a renewed hope for union with the authentic goal of the journey of life and a profound gratitude for each life overflowing into the community at large.
In 2024, after a five-month study process, Saint Francis adopted a new Vision: Lighting the way to a healthier tomorrow. That Vision acts as our guiding light for what we want to achieve in the long term and comes with a new set of key strategic focus areas and system goals: Access, Experience, Quality and Sustainability & Mission Alignment.
