When a 4-year-old patient needed multiple breathing treatments, Megan Baker, respiratory care assistant at Covenant Health in Lubbock, Texas, went above and beyond. Not only did she provide expert care, she also offered patience, comfort and reassurance—turning a scary experience into one filled with compassion and hope.

Parents often tell us it’s these moments of kindness that make all the difference.

We’re grateful for caregivers who bring heart to every treatment. This is what health for a better world looks like. 💙

October 17, the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, reminds us that poverty is the daily reality for millions.

Our Mission calls us to serve all - especially those who are poor and vulnerable. That means working alongside our communities to break down barriers—like access to care, housing, education and opportunity.

Through our community benefit programs, we work to ensure basic health needs are met, remove barriers to care, build community resilience and innovate for the future.

⛰ In Missoula County, 1 in 5 people—that’s 25,000 neighbors—rely on the Missoula Food Bank & Community Center for support.

Through our partnership, Providence Montana helps connect families to food and vital resources — support that makes all the difference.

Like a father of five in Missoula, Mont., who, after suddenly losing his job, found stability through emergency food support and benefit assistance until both parents were able to return to work. đź’™

đź’™ Today we celebrate Sisters of St. Joseph Founders Day.

In 1650, in Le Puy, France, a small group of courageous women stepped beyond the walls of tradition to serve their neighbors with self-emptying love. They cared for the sick, taught young women skills for the future and opened their hearts to the most vulnerable.

✨ Their Mission of unifying love and compassion is alive in every act of kindness, healing and service across our ministries.

May we continue to carry forward their legacy by serving our dear neighbors with courage and love.

The lump was breast cancer. Thanks to early detection and the care of Susan Montgomery, M.D., at Providence Swedish Cancer Institute in Seattle, Wash., Renee’s journey toward healing and hope began. 🩷
