Our Causes

The Charleston region is a dynamic, world-class destination lauded for its rich history and vibrant culture. A place where people prize quality of life — and quality of health. A place where, together, we can Imagine a better tomorrow and transform the future of healthcare in the Lowcountry for you, your loved ones and our community. That’s long been the Roper St. Francis Healthcare way. We’ve served the Lowcountry for more than 170 years since establishing our first hospital in 1850.

We invite you to Imagine with us as we prepare for the decades ahead. Together, we will advance our enduring mission to care for all people with compassion, faith and excellence. New facilities. New breakthroughs in patient care. Great people. Expanded services and programs. All to meet the challenges of the day and create a better future.

Roper St. Francis offers the ideal mix of a high-tech, high-touch environment, giving patients — at birth and throughout adulthood — a remarkably different and better experience:

• As the area's largest not-for-profit private healthcare system, we put purpose above profit and mission above margin.
• We provide care exclusively for the Lowcountry. Our primary mission is to meet the healthcare needs of our own community.
• Our physicians choose Roper St. Francis as their career home.
• Great care starts with an impeccable safety record. All of our hospitals are consistently top-tier performers with statewide, regional and national recognition.

We have a bold vision for how Roper St. Francis will make changes that forever transform health in the Lowcountry:

• Creating a Community Health center of excellence and innovation is central to our vision to reduce health disparities.
• A new women's and children's wellness center, along with our mobile health program, will bring care to underserved women and other at-risk, rural and vulnerable populations.
• Nurturing our existing workforce, in concert with building the workforce we need for tomorrow’s challenges will ensure our teams are able to provide quality care for our patients.

Expanding, modernizing, even relocating the facilities you need — and deserve — is a crucial step toward building the healthcare system of tomorrow:

• We aspire to be a destination for clinical care, with multiple state-of-the-art settings across the region.
• Our new 320-bed hospital medical campus on 27 acres in North Charleston will be among the largest and most advanced on the East Coast.
• Expanded care in your neighborhood will include a 60,000 square-foot ambulatory site in Mount Pleasant and a two-story medical office building in the heart of Summerville.
• We will continue to enhance and renovate our Berkeley, Bon Secours St. Francis, and Mount Pleasant hospitals to bring the best care for all.
