Established nearly 50 years ago by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Orange, St. Jude Medical Center, a faith-based, non-profit facility, has grown into one of Southern California's most respected and technologically advanced hospitals. But the values the Sisters began with — service, excellence, dignity and justice — remain the guiding principles for all we do.
