Lorena Cardenas!

Five Utah Hospitals Renamed for Sisters of the Holy Cross
Five Utah hospitals have been renamed in honor of the Sisters of the Holy Cross. The change was announced on May 1, 2023.

HCM is not affiliated with Centura Health, the non-profit entity that now manages five hospitals in Utah that have been renamed Holy Cross. Centura named the hospitals to honor the legacy of the Sisters of the Holy Cross, who founded and sponsor Holy Cross Ministries. Those same sisters founded their first hospital in Utah in 1875.
Holy Cross Ministries (HCM) is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing health, education and justice services to families in Utah regardless of race, religion, income or any other defining characteristic. We hope you enjoy the following updates and stories about our work this summer.
