The Circle of Care of St. Joseph Hospital

The Circle of Care is an association of caring people who recognize the central role that St. Joseph Hospital plays in the well-being of our community in Northwest Washington. All Circle of Care members have contributed or pledged a minimum of $5,000 to the Hospital.

Benefits of Circle of Care membership include:

CEO Briefings – these events include current plans and news of the Hospital from Nancy Steiger, Chief Executive Officer, and other speakers.

Healthcare navigation benefits - we are offering these benefits to people to personally assist them when they seek care at the Hospital. At the very core of these benefits is access to our Hospital liaison 24/7 to assist you with your needs pertaining to your Hospital visit. These benefits are personal, not preferential. You will receive the same excellent care everyone else who visits St. Joseph Hospital receives. Our staff will be available to assist and guide you.

Displays of Circle of Care donors at the Hospital

Annual donor recognition Gala - our annual black-tie optional event is both entertaining and inspirational. Awards are given to philanthropy leaders in our community and prominent speakers round out the evening.
