  Company Culture & Perks
  
  In 1901 the Sisters of St. Joseph of Belvidere Ill. agreed to establish a hospital in Lewiston Idaho. On Feb. 8 1902 we opened in a sevenroom frame house. Despite the rugged conditions and limited space the community recognized the need for a larger hospital and banded together to build and open a 50bed facility in 1903.
  
  Today you can find that same commitment and dedication here. St. Joes remains a leader in healthcare and is the largest fullservice medical center between Boise and Spokane.
