Those early visionaries of three centuries ago became the first non-cloistered community of religious women working in the streets and homes doing God’s work. Ascension is committed to caring for those who are most in need in our communities. The original sponsoring organizations of the healthcare ministries which came together as Ascension established a foundation that continues shaping its work today. Vincent de Paul founded the nucleus of the organization in 17th Century France – expressing God’s love through services to the sick, the poor, and the destitute. While the healthcare services offered by Ascension Seton have expanded dramatically from that first 40-bed hospital opened in 1902, Ascension’s mission has remained the same as when the Daughters of Charity of St. Ascension Seton is part of Ascension, one of the nation’s leading non-profit health systems, serving patients through a network of hospitals, providers, and related health facilities providing acute care services, long-term care, community health services, psychiatric, rehabilitation, and residential care. Since first opening its doors in Austin in 1902, Ascension Seton has grown from an infirmary to a network of 11 hospitals and more than 100 clinical locations across Central Texas.
