About Mercy Medical Center
Caring for our community for over 100 Years

Mercy started with a 12000 gift from the Roseburg community Thats the sum the Sisters of Mercy raised to construct Roseburgs first hospital more than 50 years after the city was founded

The 25bed Mercy Hospital was dedicated on Feb 22 1909 just four months after construction began It was built on the banks of the South Umpqua River where Douglas County Health Department now stands

Mercy has grown into a sophisticated 174bed medical center as it has upgraded its technology and expanded its services to ensure Douglas County residents access to stateoftheart healthcare without having to leave town

Today more than 1000 employees and 300 volunteers work throughout Mercy All of them personify the values upon which this institution was built It is this commitment that has helped Mercy become one of the countrys most highly rated hospitals for patient satisfaction
