It’s impossible to measure the full impact that Mercy Health and our people have had over the years.

Take this paragraph. In the time it takes you to read it, our amazing teams have made a difference to so many lives across the country. And while we’re not the type to pat ourselves on the back, it’s important to acknowledge all the effort and all the progress that’s made each day thanks to talented, driven people like you.

You’ll feel it – in every reassuring smile, every kind gesture, and every interaction. And it’s those moments, big or small, that will make your journey with Mercy Health one you’ll cherish for life.

Just ask Home Care Services Team Leader, Carla Duarte, who loves her role because not only is she helping enable older people to stay in their own homes, she’s also supporting and connecting our incredible Home Care Workers to deliver for the community. Read Carla’s story here.

…And so much more to come.

We’ve come a long way since 1920.

And through our people, we’ve been there through it all. Two pandemics… a World War… an immeasurable number of lives welcomed and farewelled. This industry is constantly evolving, and Mercy Health plays a vital role in leading the way forward – and always will.

That’s why we’re excited about what’s coming next. With a new, clear strategy and the people to bring it to life, we’re ready to take on the next 100 years – and we’ll do it with a team of amazing, dedicated people like you.
