THE SAN JUAN DE DIOS EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION - HOSPITAL, the oldest private hospital in the Philippines, had its beginnings in 1578 with the establishment of two bamboo and nipa “wards” by a Franciscan lay brother, Fray Juan Clemente. Unable to learn the language, Fray Clemente dedicated his life to preaching the gospel and caring for the sick and the needy of Manila. In 1596, La Hermanidad de la Misericordia (Confraternity of Mercy), formed by the Franciscans, assumed the work of charity started by Fray Clemente. John of God took over the administration of what was to become the Hospital de San Juan De Dios in 1656.
