You will find that our services extend beyond healthcare, and outside our building walls. Upholding our mission and values, we continually reach out to support our community, including those less fortunate. The programs described below are just a sample of various ways Mercy demonstrates stewardship, excellence, compassion, respect, and concern for the poor.
Angel of Mercy Tree
An annual holiday event sponsored by Mercy, in conjunction with the Salvation Army, Books-A-Million, and Radio Dubuque - encouraging Christmas shoppers to purchase and donate items for area needy children. We extend a big thank you to everyone who helped to make the 2011 Angel of Mercy Tree a great success.
Caring for the Community
An annual service project of Mercy Patient Care Services, where staff raise funds and gather various supplies through collections to assist a local community agency. During this year's (2011) project, 45 boxes of supplies and $1,682.00 in cash donations were delivered to the Dubuque Rescue Mission on Easter Monday.
Hillcrest/Mercy Maternal Health Clinic
Having a baby can be expensive. Some expectant mothers are not covered by insurance, while others are without maternity benefits. Our clinic allows women to access everything they need for a healthy baby and a smooth pregnancy by providing all the necessary services right in one office.
