| Paving the Way in Advanced Health Care
Local residents, businesses and visitors have the peace of mind that comes with ready access to quality, compassionate medical care. St. Joseph Health System, based in Tawas City, has been providing quality health care services to Northeast Michigan for over 55 years. The hospital is an award-winning, joint commission accredited, comprehensive healthcare system serving a five-county region of Northeast Michigan.
As your partners for a healthy community, St. Joseph Health System provides not only timely, cost -effective and convenient preventative care, but also responsive surgical, acute care and emergency room services. From medical staff who maintain a high standard of excellence and education, to committed volunteers and support staff, we are dedicated to meeting the health needs of our community.
As technologies evolve and increasingly advanced health care procedures and equipment become available, St. Joseph Health System is at the forefront of adopting the latest medical advancements. We have brought industry-leading, cutting edge technology to the Northeast Michigan region, including the installation of a 64-slice Cardiac CT scanner and Digital Imaging System. We were the first facility in Northeast Michigan to have this CT scanner and to perform Coronary CTAs on cardiac patients. In addition, St. Joseph Health System offers Open-Bore MRI that has the typical magnet strength of 1.5T but is larger than a standard MRI unit.
In the past four years, St. Joseph Health System built a comprehensive rehabilitation center, a new 46,000 square foot Surgery and Cardiovascular Center, renovated its obstetrics department and completed a new state-of-the-art
C-section delivery room.
St. Joseph Health System is a member of Ascension Health, the nation's largest Catholic and nonprofit health system with more than 105,000 associates serving in 20 states and the District of Columbia. Together, we transform healthcare through patient-centered, holistic care of the highest clinical quality. |
