About CHRISTUS Health
CHRISTUS Health is a Catholic, faith-based, not-for-profit health system comprised of almost 350 services and facilities, including more than 50 hospitals and long-term care facilities, 175 clinic and outpatient centers, and dozens of other health ministries and ventures. CHRISTUS services can be found in 60 cities in Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Georgia, and Utah in the United States and Chiapas, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo Leon, San Luis Potosi, and Tamaulipas in Mexico.
To support our health care ministry, CHRISTUS Health employs almost 28,000 Associates, and has almost 9,000 physicians on medical staffs throughout our system.
Its dimension, strength, and depth of service place CHRISTUS among the top ten Catholic health systems in the United States. CHRISTUS is also listed among the nation’s Top 100 Integrated Healthcare Networks. Jointly sponsored by the two religious congregations of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word in Houston and San Antonio, the Mission of CHRISTUS Health is to extend the healing
ministry of Jesus Christ.
Our Sponsorship
CHRISTUS Health is sponsored by the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word of Houston and the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word of San Antonio, which were founded more than 130 years ago in response to Bishop Claude Marie Dubuis’ call: "Our Lord Jesus Christ, suffering in the persons of a multitude of sick and infirm of every kind, seeks relief at your hands."
Convenient, free parking is available at all CHRISTUS Hospital—St. Elizabeth and St. Mary locations, and complimentary valet parking is available at St. Elizabeth's main entrance.
