Nov. 10, 2024 | Mercy Health 150th anniversary

From humble beginnings serving a small Catholic health dispensary in Baltimore, Mercy Health Services has grown over 150 years to a full-service system serving thousands of people each year, continuing with a special effort to serve women and those who are poor. Catholic Review Editor Christopher Gunty talked with Sister Helen Amos, RSM, chair of the executive chair of the Mercy board, about how the sisters’ charism remains a focus of the hospital, and with Dr. David Maine, president and CEO, about how the health system focuses on meeting the community’s needs now and in the future.
