St. Joseph’s is Asking Arizona Residents to Share Their Stories

St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix is celebrating its 115th anniversary during the month of March, and the hospital is asking residents from throughout the state to share their St. Joseph’s stories. Hundreds of thousands of Arizonans have been born and/or cared for at the Valley’s first hospital since it opened its doors more than 100 years ago.

“People often have remarkable stories about a child’s birth or the care that they or a loved one received at our hospital,” says Sister Margaret McBride, vice president of Mission Services at St. Joseph’s. “We would love to collect their stories as part of our anniversary celebration.”

Stories can be e-mailed to shareyourstjosephstory@chw.edu. If you send a story, please include your name and contact information. In addition, former patients and hospital supporters are invited to participate in an anniversary candle lighting ceremony that will surround the hospital the evening of Thursday, March 18. If you are interested in attending, please e-mail stjosephsceremony@chw.edu.

St. Joseph’s was founded on March 19, 1895 by the Sisters of Mercy who were moved by the plight of tuberculosis victims. What started out as a six-room cottage to help those with the lung ailment has grown to a 700-bed hospital that is internationally recognized for patient care, medical education and research.

The hospital last asked for stories when it was building the new Barrow Neuroscience Tower in 2005. It received several stories from residents living throughout Arizona. Approximately 15 of these stories were made into a video that was shown during the tower’s opening celebrations.

Phoenix General Plan Update - We need your help!‏

Many of you may have been wondering what is happening with the Phoenix General Plan Update. We received a lot of input from the community during the months of October and November, but also noticed that attendance at our workshops dropped off. After taking a look at the input, it was determined that a community dialogue is needed so that all interested parties can hear the diverse comments received and help create a shared vision (or visions) for Phoenix.

The community dialogue will be held on March 6th from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm at PhoenixCity Hall with the primary purpose being to develop a vision or visions for Phoenix by answering the question “Where do we want to go?” This would be followed by a second workshop in May that focuses on the question “How do we get there?” The second workshop will allow participants to develop action items based upon the visions created at the first workshop.

We won’t be able to make progress on either of these questions without active participation from people who care about the future of Phoenix. Could this be you?

If you would like to be help chart the course of Phoenix for up to the next 50 years, please send you name and contact information to Carol Johnson, Planning Manager, at carol.johnson@phoenix.gov. Space is limited to the first 120 people who respond, and the deadline is Wednesday, February 24th. You will receive confirmation of your attendance by Friday, February 26th. Please contact Carol Johnson at 602-261-8289, if you have any questions.

IMPORTANT - When you respond, please let us know which 3 visions in the table below are most interesting to you. These statements were developed by looking at the feedback from the village visioning meetings in October and November, and identifying which words or phrases were mentioned most often. There will be individual discussion groups devoted to 12 of these visions areas, and your choices will help us determine which areas are addressed. We will make our best efforts to assign you to a group discussing one of your top 3 vision areas.
