About

Integrative Healing has been active at Mercy Hospital since 2001. A core group of holistic nurses and a doctor came together with the vision of providing complementary therapies to the hospitalized patient free of charge. In 2001, The Wellness and Spiritual Care departments presented a concept of Touch, Love, and Compassion program to hospital administration and were approved to begin. The Integrative Healing program embodies values of compassion, respect, integrity, spirituality, stewardship, imagination and excellence.
