MISHAWAKA — Saint Joseph Regional Medical Center (SJRMC) will honor the contributions of The Sisters of the Holy Cross who served our country as the first Navy nurses with a special ceremony on September 9, 2013. These nurses selflessly cared for the sick and injured soldiers of both sides during the darkest hours of the Civil War.
On September 9, 2013, the Sisters of the Holy Cross Civil War Nurses Historical Marker will be installed and rededicated at its new location on the Mishawaka Campus. The week is also noteworthy as September 14 marks the Feast of the Holy Cross.
