Employees celebrated at all seven SSM Health Care – St. Louis hospitals on July 29 as hospital leaders unveiled a new sign along with a renewed commitment to patients. The hospitals, medical group and urgent cares in St. Louis will be known as:

SSM Health is looking to transform health care through a consistently positive experience, by offering additional tools and more accessibility to our patients. To accomplish this goal, SSM Health locations will be offering new convenient hours, as well as the means and information patients need to stay healthy.
“For more than 140 years, we’ve had the honor and privilege of serving patients in the St. Louis area and beyond,” said Candace Jennings, regional president of SSM Health St. Louis and interim president of SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital. “Recently our home care and hospice locations adopted SSM Health, as have other hospitals across our health system. By uniting under this common name, our patients, employees and community will know to expect an exceptional experience every time they see SSM Health.”
SSM Health’s other clinics, hospitals and health care services in Missouri, Illinois, Oklahoma and Wisconsin will transition to the new name within the next two years.
