About Us

Provena Covenant Medical Center is a 210-bed comprehensive medical facility with a rich history in the Champaign-Urbana community. Through our predecessor organizations, Mercy Hospital (founded in 1919) and Burnham City Hospital (founded in 1894), we have a legacy of advanced, compassionate care that stretches back over a century. And today, we're one of east central Illinois' most advanced medical facilities, with a medical staff of 250 physicians representing 37 areas of specialized care. By merging with two other Catholic health organizations, we became part of the Provena Health System in 1997. Through this new organization, we're part of an extensive network of hospitals, extended care facilities and clinics dedicated to improving community health care. And we're working hard locally to put those resources to work. 

We also have the area's largest rehabilitation center, featuring facilities for physical, occupational and speech therapy.In January of 2000, we completed the addition of a brand new cancer center that will offer new treatment methods pioneered locally. Its design incorporates a holistic approach to care, much like our state-of-the art Family Maternity Center that includes home-like birthing suites. While the special touch makes both facilities comfortable for patients, they also feature advanced technology. After more than a century of growth and change, we've assembled a team of skilled physicians, nurses, technicians and medical workers dedicated to providing patient-focused community care that makes a difference. It's an accomplishment we're proud of and a commitment we're determined to keep as the next century unfolds
