Together We Create a Special World!



The Mater Hospital was founded in 1962 by Sisters of Mercy, it was converted to a non-profit Trust and the Sisters continue to oversee the administration of the hospital as Trustees. By virtue of its origin and its continuing inspiration, The Mater Hospital philosophy is founded in a devout concern for social justice and the poor.

With unique and creative medical programmes - such as The Mater Cardiac Programme, The Mater Cancer Screening Programme and The Mater HIV/ VCT Programme - the hospital reaches out to those who are in need and helps restore hope and joy where there is great uncertainty and fear.
