Mercy Health Plans' Community Outreach

Mercy Health Plans' service to community dates back to our roots over 200 years ago. Our heritage plays an important role in our culture of caring for our community.

The rich history of our parent company, Sisters of Mercy, began in the early 1800's when a young Irish woman was moved to respond to the suffering and poverty she witnessed around her. Catherine McAuley, foundress of the Sisters of Mercy, devoted her life to ministering to Dublin's poor, sick and uneducated. In doing so, she established the heritage of caregiving and commitment that continues today in the Sisters Of Mercy religious communities throughout the world.

Mercy Health Plans' community efforts serve as an extension to our foundress' original mission and spirit - expressed through the care, compassion and personalized attention we extend to those we serve and each other.
