“As a faith-based Ministry, Provena Saint Joseph Hospital embraces healing elements that compliment the clinical care we provide,” Bill Brown said. “We know such elements make a difference to our patients, guests, employees, physicians and volunteers and are unique aspects that make our Ministry an extraordinary place of healing.”
The Healing Gallery’s premier exhibit comes from members of the Yellow House Artists, Eileen Bosic, Lillian Pagni and Carol Zach.
“The Healing Gallery also demonstrates our commitment to our community as every quarter the gallery will exhibit new artwork from our area’s artists and we can look forward to seeing diverse talents on display, “ Brown added.
