At SIH St. Joseph Memorial Hospital, nurses are the heart of patient care, demonstrating resilience, compassion and dedication every day. That unwavering commitment has once again earned national recognition, as St. Joseph has achieved the prestigious Pathway to Excellence® designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).

This honor is a testament to a supportive, empowering workplace where nursing voices are heard, professional growth is encouraged and patient-centered care remains the top priority.

SIH St. Joseph Memorial Hospital is proud to be one of only four hospitals in Illinois to receive this esteemed designation, marking the second time in recent years that the nursing team has earned this distinction.

This achievement reflects an ongoing commitment to fostering an environment where nurses thrive, patients receive outstanding care and our community benefits from a hospital that truly values its people.

In June 2024, the SIH St Joseph Memorial Hospital team learned their hard work had paid off and they'd achieved the re-designation.
