St. Joseph’s Sister Patricia Ann Award is given annually to a physician, nurse and an employee, who exemplify the core values of excellence and stewardship. Winners are honored at a ceremony each March. The nursing and employee winners each receive $500 and a plaque. The physician winner will have his/her name engraved on a plaque that is displayed in the physicians’ lounge.

This award ceremony is scheduled during the first week of October to coincide with St. Francis’ Feast Day on October 4. It honors a St. Joseph’s leader who, inspired by the spirit of St. Francis and St. Clare of Assisi, is an example to all as a servant leader. Healthcare Week

A variety of events are planned during Healthcare Week each May to thank and recognize employees and physicians for their hard work each and every day. Some of the activities have included an ice cream social, North side business day and community service team building projects.
