About us
Every day, 119,000 compassionate caregivers serve patients and communities through Providence St. Joseph Health, a national, Catholic, not-for-profit health system, driven by a belief that health is a human right. Rooted in the founding missions of the Sisters of Providence and the Sisters of St. Joseph of Orange, courageous women ahead of their time who brought health care and other social services to the American West when it was still a rugged, untamed frontier, we share a singular commitment to improve the health of all. From our earliest days, we’ve met new challenges by pioneering new solutions. Today, with 51 hospitals, 829 clinics and a comprehensive range of services, we strive to meet the needs of communities across Alaska, California, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas and Washington through a diverse family of Catholic, other faith-based and mission-driven secular organizations. Now, as we face a new frontier—a changing health care landscape—we draw upon their pioneering and compassionate spirit to plan for the next century of health for a better world, especially for the poor and vulnerable. If you need treatment, please visit www.providence.org to locate a health care provider.

Sarah Johnson, BSN, BA, RN-BC is no stranger to the impacts of climate change. “I work to drive climate change mitigation forward in our hospital and throughout the Providence Montana Service Area,” says Johnson. “My work entails decreasing the carbon emissions from operations, educating staff and caregivers, engaging people around this topic, and increasing awareness of the intersection of climate change, health and health care. I do a little bit of everything, with a lot of help and a lot of coordination with other folks throughout my facility.” Climate change is more than a professional focus for Sarah, as she and her husband were two of numerous individuals impacted by Montana’s 2017 Lolo Peak Wildfire, which ended up burning nearly 54,000 acres of land. At 37 weeks pregnant, Sarah and her family were evacuated in the middle of the night, and Sarah remained displaced for weeks but continued reporting for duty as a bedside nurse. “Looking back, I think it would have been perfectly reasonable if I had called off shifts because I was evacuated and had none of the worldly items that I was used to having, but I did choose to go back to work. I’m someone who, if I make a commitment, I show up to that commitment. I had a commitment to my patients." Wildfires are just one example of climate hazards that can not only impact individuals physically (for example, smoke particles in the air), but also mentally. This was true for Sarah, who understands how climate change is impacting our lands and what that means for our physical and mental health. 🌎 Read Sarah's full story here: https://lnkd.in/gV-4xV3d #EarthMonth #Wildfires #ClimateChange #CarbonEmissions #MentalHealth
