About Us
Founded by the Dominican Sisters, Providence St. Joseph's Hospital has served the residents of Chewelah and Stevens County since 1929.
With 25 acute care beds, patients benefit from the convenience of a home-town hospital that offers physical therapy, outpatient services and emergency services.
With Providence located throughout Eastern Washington, we provide complete medical care, from skilled nursing to the region's most advanced hospital care.
Providence serves Steven's County in northeast Washington state at St. Joseph's Hospital and DominiCare in Chewelah and Mount Carmel Hospital in Colville.
Both hospitals provide services generally found at larger urban facilities, in an intimate, convenient setting, including emergency room, maternity/childbirth, physical therapy, orthopedic and radiology services.
The experts at DominiCare provide essential services - such as personal care, household assistance and family respite - to the frail, elderly and impaired residents of Stevens, Pend Oreille and Ferry counties, helping them maintain independence.

When submitting a complaint to the Joint Commission about an accredited organization, you may either provide your name and contact information or submit your complaint anonymously. Providing your name and contact information enables the Joint Commission to inform you about the actions taken in response to your complaint, and also to contact you should additional information be needed. It is the Joint Commission's policy to treat your name as confidential information and not to disclose it to any other party. However, it may be necessary to share the complaint with Providence Health & Services in the course of a complaint investigation.
Joint Commission policy forbids an accredited organization from taking retaliatory actions against employees for having reported a patient safety or quality of care concern to the Joint Commission.
Please note: The Joint Commission does not address individual billing issues and payment disputes. It also does not have jurisdiction in labor relations issues or the individual clinical management of a patient.
