The Feast Day of
St. Catherine Labouré
is November 28
St. Catherine Labouré was
born in a small French village,
the eighth child of peasant
farming parents. Catherine’s
mother died when she
was nine years old. Catherine
turned to Mary, the Mother
of Jesus, in her sorrow.
This began her lifelong love
of Mary.
By the time Catherine was 12
years old her father depended
on her to manage the family
and their large farm. At the
age of 23 Catherine entered
the religious community of
the Daughters of Charity of
St. Vincent de Paul in Paris.
For the next 46 years, Catherine
served the elderly at the
Hospice in Reuilly with Christ-like love and respect.
On December 31, 1876, St. Catherine Labouré died
at the age of 70. November 28 is the Feast Day of
St. Catherine Labouré.

Human Resources
Sometimes caregivers need care too. As caregivers we
are not immune to the problems and pressures of life.
Help is just a phone call away! The Employee Assistance
Program (EAP) can address all types of issues
from depression, financial, stress, parenting, marital
and other personal concerns you have.
This is a great benefit available to all St. Vincent’s
HealthCare associates and their immediate family
members from the date of hire. Corporate Care Works
is the provider for our EAP.
You and your immediate family members can utilize
EAP free of charge for up to six visits per year. The
EAP is confidential and does not share your personal
information with St. Vincent’s. If you need help, contact
Corporate Care Works directly at (904) 296-9436.
