Providence St. The facility is a Top 100 hospital having been awarded by Solucient 10 times.
Vincent Medical Center is part of Providence Health & Services in Oregon, a not-for-profit network of hospitals, health plans, physicians, clinics and affiliated health services. In addition, we are a designated nurse magnet facility, having received Magnet Recognition for Excellence in Nursing Services from the American Nurses Credentialing Center.
From the first heart transplant to the 100th, more than 100 lives have been changed — and counting.
We’re celebrating this incredible milestone at Providence St. Vincent — honoring the patients, caregivers and donors who make every life-saving transplant possible. 💙

Our community partners at Bloodworks Northwest have decalred a CODE RED due to a less than one to two-day supply of critical blood types and platelets. Without immediate action, the situation could turn heartbreaking with a single incident.
It is especially dire during summer and what we refer to as the 100 deadliest days – the time between Memorial Day and Labor Day when donations go down but accidents and injuries go up.
Only about 3% of people donate blood. If just 1% more stepped up, we could ease shortages and stabilize the supply.
We urgently need as many donors as possible at our upcoming blood drive to ensure Pacific Northwest patients have immediate access to lifesaving transfusions for cancer treatment, trauma care, and childbirth complications.
If you’re feeling healthy, please consider taking one hour out of your day to give blood. Thank you for signing up to save lives in our community at an upcoming Providence St. Vincent monthly blood drive:
• Monday, June 22, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
• Monday, July 20, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
