Catholic Identity

Catholic Identity

Catholic hospitals  are called to be real and living expressions of the church’s pastoral mission in the world. Catholic identity is a keystone for the mission of all Catholic hospitals  and communities. It is expressed in structures and processes; in the day to day nursing care, in the pastoral care, and in environment; in the formation of staff.  It is reflected in strategic planning and community culture; the wellbeing of patients and staff; and the engagement of families and the wider community.
