St. John’s also supports an accredited nursing school, the Cochran School of Nursing, and promotes health education through community outreach and education programs.

The medical staff of St. John’s, along with our other facilities, has the most up-to-date medical technology at their disposal, ranging from robotic surgery to our sophisticated Breast Imaging Center. This technology combined with our professional staff and exacting standards helps us achieve our goal of skilled and compassionate care for all.
