About Ascension
Ascension is a leading non-profit, faith-based national health system dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized care to individuals across the United States. With a workforce of over 150,000 associates, Ascension operates more than 2,600 sites of care, including over 140 hospitals and 40 senior living communities, spanning 19 states and the District of Columbia.
As the largest Catholic health system in the U.S., Ascension is committed to serving all individuals, with special attention to those who are poor and vulnerable. This mission is reflected in their comprehensive range of services, which include primary care, acute care, specialty care, behavioral health, and home health services.
Ascension operates several nationally ranked specialty centers, such as cancer, heart, and trauma centers, ensuring high-quality care for complex health conditions.
In addition to its healthcare facilities, Ascension offers home health services through Ascension At Home, providing personalized care in the comfort of patients' homes. This service includes skilled nursing visits, personal care assistance, and home infusion services, supporting patients as they transition from acute care to home-based care.
Ascension's commitment to community health is further demonstrated through its Community Health Ministries (CHMs), which serve vulnerable populations in urban and rural settings. These ministries provide a range of medical, dental, and social services, acting as model sites for social determinants of health initiatives and population health management.
Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, Ascension's extensive network ensures that quality healthcare is accessible to communities nationwide. Their holistic approach to care addresses not only the physical needs of patients but also their emotional, social, and spiritual well-being, embodying their mission to provide compassionate, personalized care to all.
