MISSION:
CHI St. Vincent makes the healing presence of God known in our world by improving the health of the people we serve, especially those who are vulnerable, while advancing social justice for all. CHI St. Vincent is dedicated to providing compassionate and excellent care — for you, your family and your neighbors. Financial support from generous community members helps CHI continue the legacy of its ministry which began in 1888 when the Hagar family gave a donation that would open the first hospital in the state.
Today, CHI St. Vincent offers centers of excellence for heart care, behavioral health, neuroscience, oncology, general surgery and other areas of expertise, as well as a robust surgery program. CHI is growing and expanding to take these services into the next century. CHI St. Vincent Foundation was founded in 1979. CHI is inspired by faith, driven by innovation and powered by humanity. CHI understands how generosity can cause a ripple effect on the community. Together, they are making a real impact on the health of the people around them.
