St Bernard's Hospital

St. Bernard Hospital is an independent, Catholic, nonprofit safety-net community hospital serving the Englewood neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side. Founded in the early 1900s, the hospital provides inpatient and outpatient medical services, including emergency care, cardiac care, pulmonary care, critical care, behavioral health, dental care, ambulatory services, and women’s health programs. The organization emphasizes care for underserved patients and community health access regardless of ability to pay. It is sponsored by Catholic Health International and remains an operating healthcare delivery organization rather than a drug-development biotech or pharmaceutical company.
