Mission
Saint Raphael’s caring mission is to improve the health status of our community by providing a comprehensive range of quality healthcare services.
As a Catholic healthcare system sponsored by the Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth, we continue the healing ministry of Jesus Christ by stewarding our resources according to the principals of dignity, charity, and justice. We collaborate with all who share our values, our vision for better health for each individual, and our special concern for the underserved, the poor, and the elderly.
Vision
Consistent with our guiding values and mission, the Saint Raphael Healthcare System, in collaboration with its entities, will work in partnership with physicians and other providers to establish an integrated network of comprehensive health care services for Greater New Haven. Through this network we will take responsibility for coordination, management, and delivery of health care services in the most appropriate setting and with demonstrated quality at the lowest possible cost. We will advocate on behalf of the underserved, the poor and the elderly, so that every person receives the best care regardless of ability to pay.
