Joseph of orange trace their roots back to 17th century france with the unique vision of a jesuit priest by the name of jean-pierre medaille. Father medaille sought to organize an order of religious women who, rather than remaining safely cloistered in a convent, ventured into the community to seek out "the dear neighbors" and minister to their needs. The congregation managed to survive the turbulence of the french revolution and eventually expanded throughout france and throughout the world. In 1912 a small group of sisters of st. Joseph went to eureka, california, at the invitation of the local bishop, to establish a school. A few years later, the great influenza epidemic of 1918 caused the sisters to care for the ill. It was at this time the sisters realized their community desperately needed a hospital. Through bold faith, foresight, and flexiblity in 1920, the sisters opened a 28-bed st. Joseph hospital of eureka. This was the first st. Joseph health ministry. Three mission outcomes strategically guide our ministry work st. Joseph heritage healthcare is committed to three systemwide mission outcomes: 1) sacred encounters, 2) perfect care, and 3) healthiest communities. 1) every interaction will be experienced as a sacred encounter the goal of sacred encounter has a direct connection to our overall mission and values.
