Top quality health care is one of Central Oregon’s crown jewels. With four hospitals and more than 4,482 employees, St. Charles Health System is both the largest provider of health care and largest employer in Central Oregon.

St. Charles Health System has pledged to partner with the communities it serves to achieve an ambitious vision: Creating America's healthiest community, together. St. Charles Health System began in 2001 as Cascade Health Services when St. Charles Medical Center in Bend merged with Central Oregon District Hospital in Redmond.
