Caritas Christi Health Care System

Caritas Christi was established in 1985 as a result of the foresight of Bernard Cardinal Law and his idea that Catholic hospitals in Massachusetts should work together to achieve not only clinical success, but to benefit from economies of scale. This concept of forming a system of hospitals was born long before other health care systems were forming.

Today Caritas Christi is one of the largest healthcare systems in New England, providing community-based medicine and tertiary care in eastern Massachusetts, southern New Hampshire and Rhode Island.

Our Mission

Caritas Christi is a Catholic Health Care System rooted in the history of the Archdiocese of Boston. As a community of health care providers, we affirm Christ's healing ministry, foster excellence in care, and commit ourselves to those in need in accordance with the principles of the Catholic Church.

Through our programs and services, which cover the spectrum of health care, we affirm the sanctity of life, advocate for the poor and disenfranchised, and exercise responsibility for the common good. With just stewardship of our human and material resources, we pledge to strengthen this health care ministry through sound health care practice, research, education and innovation.

Core Values

After careful consideration the Caritas Christi Health System has chosen to allow each of their sponsored facilities to choose the values that best reflect their respective cultures and the beliefs of the individuals whose actions bring these core values to life.
