Hospital Sisters Health System
With 13 hospitals throughout Illinois and Wisconsin, Hospital Sisters Health System (HSHS) is one of the largest Catholic healthcare systems in the United States. Our goal is to continue to improve and advance our hospitals. HSHS is sponsored by The Hospital Sisters of the Third Order of St. Francis, a religious congregation founded in Telgte, Germany, in 1844.
The primary mission of the Hospital Sisters Health System is to provide a structure and the means whereby the Hospital Sisters of the Third Order of St. Francis continue their healing mission in the Roman Catholic Church. Hospitals and other institutionally based programs are the primary means of responding to those in need. Service is regarded as a ministry of healing which exemplifies the Gospel values of compassion, justice and reverence for life throughout its continuum.
