St. Joseph's and its ambulatory programs, mental health services, home care and Franciscan Health Support are accredited by the Joint Commission. St. Joseph's has stood as a community landmark atop Prospect Hill in Syracuse since 1869, when five Sisters of St. Francis transformed a dance hall and bar into a 15-bed hospital. Still operated by the Sisters of St. Francis, the growth of Syracuse's first hospital has paralleled that of the city. The institution has evolved into a health system that, in addition to the Hospital, includes a college of nursing, psychiatric emergency program and two outpatient surgery centers. In addition to providing general medical and surgical care, St. Joseph's offers several specialty services, including hemodialysis, maternity services, a separate birth center, emergency care, intensive care, wound care, dental services, suicide prevention and certified home health care.

Inpatient visits average more than 26,000 annually. Outpatient visits throughout the St. Josephs network number 480,000 a year. The Hospital's busy emergency department records more than 48,000 visits a year. St. Joseph's annual operating budget is $402 million. The Hospital's medical staff of more than 800 is comprised of physicians and dentists representing a broad spectrum of specialties.
