Mission Statement

The mission of St. Anthony's Memorial Hospital is to participate in the healthcare ministry of the Church.  We commit our valuable resources to provide a family-centered approach in meeting the healthcare needs of all people in the community and surrounding area regardless of ability to pay, and to foster the values of care, joy, respect, and competence.

Care...This embodies the concern, compassion and sensitivity with which we care for patients as individuals on a one-to-one basis.  It depicts our way of dealing with patients, clients, employees and co-workers.  Many times it is thought of as a bedside behavior, but it belongs in business offices, cafeterias and board rooms.

Joy...This is the manner in which our employees and all who join us in our ministry seek to perform their work, the internal fulfillment of caring for others.  It is an essential ingredient in bringing a sense of hope to those who suffer.

Respect...This includes respect for life and for the dignity of each individual person.  It is a commitment to freeing and empowering each person to grow and develop to his or her full potential.

Competence...Our work is performed and our institutions are managed at the highest levels of skill and ability possible.  We are committed to recruiting and developing competent people whose personal values reflect our own.
