Bond Attendant

St Joseph Mercy Hospital is the only Not for Profit Catholic General Hospital owned by the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas headed by a Governing body consisting of the Roman Catholic Bishop of Guyana, a Board of Directors, and appointed Executives of the Hospital.

This Catholic Hospital is the only such institution in the Caricom region and is one of Guyana’s leading private healthcare institutions. We train our nurses in our school who benefit from our link with the Sisters of Mercy of USA and Mercy Hospital Connecticut.

As an 80-year-old Hospital, we have been renowned for being one of the best in Maternity care and have, over the past decade, upgraded (and continue to do so) all services and equipment in keeping with twenty-first-century progress. We are focused on developing specialized areas of service to suit the growing economy.

After a fire that destroyed our heritage building in 2010, rebuilding and upgrading our equipment and services began in 2014 with tremendous focus.

Our 2019/2020 expansion of services is now geared to offer Industrial Medicine to the corporate and Oil and Gas entities which include fit for return to work, fit to fly, Doctors’ reports along with pre-employment, and annual health checks.

We have upgraded our Certified Lab (which continues to gain awards from the local and Caribbean Bureau of Standards) to include specific requirements in TB Testing using Quantiferon Gold Standard which we give a status card to the patient after testing negative.

We are an ISO90001:2015-certified hospital.
