Message from Bill Murray
Dear Friends,
Grounded in a tradition of strong Values and energized by the call to serve, the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth Health System (SCLHS) is advancing boldly into the future in our unyielding pursuit of clinical excellence, strategic growth and health care for all.
Since our beginning in 1972, the Health System has continued and built on the legacy of the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth (SCLs) who founded their first hospital in Leavenworth, Kan., in 1858. Just as the sisters fostered excellence, our nine Hospitals and four Clinics strive for high standards. We have award-winning facilities that are nationally recognized leaders in quality health care delivery and in customer service.
Much like the pioneer sisters ventured into uncharted territory, our Health System is on a major quest that will transform care delivery supported by advanced information technology and result in electronic health records for the patients we serve. In their footsteps and in their name, the Health System has remained true to the charitable mission of the SCLs—providing services to persons of all means, especially the poor or the vulnerable.
Read on to learn more about us; contact us if you need additional information; and consider us your preferred provider, your health resource or for possible employment. You will find us highly dedicated to improving the health of the individuals and the communities we serve.
Thank you.
