Our History and What We Stand For
Since 1888, CHI St. Vincent has provided a welcoming presence in Arkansas. Starting humbly as a 10-bed charity hospital founded by the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, KY., today’s CHI St. Vincent operates multiple hospitals, a network of primary care and specialty clinics, and community clinics specifically focused on the needs of the medically uninsured.
Though the practice of medicine has changed dramatically, one thing has not – we remain true to a focus on human dignity and social justice. Our core values revolve around reverence, integrity, compassion and excellence in the workplace. Our reputation is that of a physician-friendly organization with a responsive attitude.
