In 1880 The Sisters of Mercy founded Atlanta's first hospital. A
century later, when the hospital moved out of the downtown area,
Mercy Care was established to return to the city and care for
Atlanta's homeless population. Initially a volunteer effort by the
hospital's staff, Mercy Care has grown into a network of fixed
sites and mobile clinics providing medical, dental, behavioral
health and case management services for homeless, immigrant and
other poor persons.
Saint Joseph's Health System provides seven care sites around
Atlanta with five Mercy Care mobile units, as well as a senior
facility in Rome.
As your medical home, Mercy Care offers comprehensive services that
meet the majority of primary physical and mental health and
wellness needs. Services are planned and delivered by a team that
works together for your health. These services include primary
medical care for adults and children, primary dental care, vision
care, mental and behavioral health assessment and counseling,
prescriptions, health screenings and health education.
