General Announcements

Crèches on display at Saint Meinrad Archabbey Library Dec. 5-Jan. 10

An exhibit of Christmas crèches from around the world will be on display in the Saint Meinrad Archabbey Library, 200 Hill Drive, in St. Meinrad from Dec. 5 through Jan. 10.

The display features crèches from the monastery collection, as well as from the Catherine A. Smith Nativity Collection, which was donated to Saint Meinrad in 2002 in memory of her brother, Charles Patrick Smith.

Catherine began collecting nativity sets in 1971, purchasing many during her extensive travels throughout the world. Her brother studied for the priesthood at Saint Meinrad, and later served as a priest in the Archdiocese of Indianapolis.

The crèches selected for display represent a variety of styles and media, such as porcelain, wood, glazed tile, glass, cloth, stone, metals and ceramic.

The exhibit is free and open to the public. For library hours, call 812-357-6401 or 800-987-7311, or log on to the Archabbey Library’s website at www.saintmeinrad.edu/library.

The library will be closed on Dec. 25-28 and Jan. 1, 3 and 4. Visitors may wish to arrive at least 30 minutes before closing to view the exhibit.

 

Providence Health Care of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods receives Award for Excellence

Providence Health Care (PHC) of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods in St. Mary-of-the-Woods, was named one of the recipients of the 2014 Great Lakes Caring Hospice and Home Health Award for Excellence.

The facility was chosen from more than 1,200 facilities, physicians and hospitals across Michigan, Indiana and Ohio.

According to PHC Director Gerald Dutton, this is the first time the facility has received the award.

In a letter provided to Dutton, Great Lakes Caring stated PHC was selected for its good communication between Great Lakes Caring and the Providence Health Care staff; for keeping in mind the needs of patients and the importance of making timely referrals; and for the support and understanding of the importance of collaborative care when a patient is in need of hospice, palliative or home health care.

This is the seventh year Great Lakes Caring has presented the award to its honorees.

Originally serving only the Sisters of Providence, Providence Health Care opened to patients from the general public in 2012. PHC offers top-rated holistic care for inpatient and outpatient physical, occupational, speech and aquatic therapy, and 24-hour skilled nursing care with private rooms.
