St. Edward Mercy Medical Center, being an affiliated with the Sisters of Mercy Health Network, is participating in the broad-based system-wide initiative termed the ‘Genesis’ Project, to transform Mercy’s clinical and business work processes and enhance our information systems.

Beginning in 2004, the Sisters of Mercy Health System placed a dedicated project team to design, develop and deploy the work processes and technology that will support clinical and business needs across Mercy. Once designed, the work processes and technology will be tested at various sites and then sequentially deployed at other hospitals across the System.
