The Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System is a leading health care innovator in Louisiana and Mississippi. We bring together outstanding clinicians, the most advanced technology and leading research to ensure that our patients receive the highest quality and safest care possible.

This commitment is grounded in a history that is more than 100 years old, but reflected today by our strategic vision of transforming healthcare through superior performance and excellent patient care.

As a nonprofit, mission-focused Catholic healthcare ministry, we give special attention to our citizens who are most in need. During the most recent fiscal year, we provided more than $39 million in unreimbursed care and community support to the underprivileged.

Our health system is one of the largest in Louisiana, with hospitals, clinics and physicians located throughout Louisiana and in Mississippi. In fact, we provide care to almost half of Louisiana’s citizens, and serve in Mississippi's largest metropolitan area. Because of our size and the partnerships we have with other local organizations, we are able to pool our resources and share cost and service efficiencies and learn from each other, thereby accelerating our ability to improve care and solve challenges.

Since our founding in Monroe, Louisiana in 1911, we have been blessed by the guidance of the Franciscan Sisters. Through their guidance and steadfast example, we have committed to assure that we perpetuate their healing ministry for another hundred years. It is a noble purpose we strive to fulfill every day.

Our ten hospitals include:

• Our Lady of the Angels in Bogalusa
• Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center in Baton Rouge
• Our Lady of the Lake Children's Hospital in Baton Rouge
• Our Lady of the Lake Ascension in Gonzales
• Our Lady of Lourdes Regional Medical Center in Lafayette
• Our Lady of Lourdes Women's and Children's in Lafayette
• Our Lady of Lourdes Heart Hospital
• St. Dominic's Hospital in Jackson, Mississippi
• St. Francis Medical Center in Monroe.
• Assumption Community Hospital

Following in the footsteps of our founders, the Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady, our team members and physicians are called to provide high quality care and compassion to all people, especially those most in need.

As we look to the future of our healthcare ministry, we chart our course by “going where we are called.”

Since 1946 when the small Jackson Infirmary was acquired by the Dominican Sisters of Springfield, Ill., to present day sponsorship by the Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady, St. Dominic’s remains committed to the highest standards of patient care.

Located in Jackson, Mississippi and competitively situated on the highly traveled I-55 corridor, St. Dominic Hospital is dedicated to advancing health care through the latest technology and procedures performed by highly skilled physicians and advanced practice professionals.

This 571-bed tertiary care hospital has 4,000 team members and a medical staff of nearly 500 physicians joining together to treat every human life as a sacred gift from God and to care for all human aspects – body, mind and spirit. These actions along with a strong commitment to offer superior health care has earned St. Dominic’s designations such as:
