At OSF HealthCare, our Mission is to serve persons with the greatest care and love in the spirit of Christ and the example of Francis of Assisi. This Mission-minded care model represents more than a philosophy; it’s the very heart of OSF. It’s a banner arching over us, compelling us to extend the compassion of Christ through the full continuum of cancer care. It’s why we serve the entirety of each cancer patient — mind, body and spirit — meeting every need with clear communication, relational empathy and a kind, human approach. At OSF, we honor every patient’s individuality with a care plan that’s as unique as they are, provided by a designated team that supports them before, during and after treatment. In all of our efforts, our goal is to be a safe haven of respect and kindness. We strive to change not just how cancer care is carried out, but also how it feels.
