In 1824, in dangerous post-Revolutionary France, 12 courageous young women between the ages of 19 and 29 defied tradition to offer good help--or bon secours--to those who needed it most. The mission of those first Sisters of Bon Secours was to provide compassionate, quality health care where and when it was needed. Forty years ago, the Sisters of Bon Secours brought that mission to Virginia when they started of St. Mary's Hospital in Richmond's West End. Today Bon Secours Richmond Health System encompasses four Metro Richmond hospitals including St. Mary's Hospital, Memorial Regional Medical Center, St. Francis Medical Center, and Richmond Community Hospital. In addition, Bon Secours also offers home health, diagnostic centers, physician practices, senior living centers and a host of other health services all over Richmond. Part of the Richmond system, Bon Secours for Women is by women, for women. Over 80 percent of our employees are women. The Complete Care we provide continues to win national awards for quality and patient satisfaction because of our employees. And two other awards tells us something at least as important about our commitment to women of all ages: Bon Secours Richmond is one of only four health systems nationally--and the only one in Virginia--to be named five straight years in a row to the 100 Best Companies for Working Mothers in the nation. And now we have been named as well to the AARP Best Employers for Workers Over 50 in the nation, again a Richmond first. As a woman, you will feel at home with Bon Secours.
