Aware that caring for the body requires a lot of time and energy, she was convinced that the spiritual dimension of the person should not be overlooked in a truly holistic approach to care. Wanting to respond to this fundamental need of the person, she joined with the staff of the Archdiocese of Montreal to establish a diocesan home care service, which would focus on the spiritual accompaniment of the sick and elderly persons.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243;][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_video src=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/-E1D2WM1Bss&#8221; src_webm=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/-E1D2WM1Bss&#8221; image_src=&#8221;\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/-E1D2WM1Bss\/hqdefault.jpg&#8221; thumbnail_overlay_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.6)&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;|||-100%&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;|||0px&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;37px|0px||||&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset1&#8243; box_shadow_vertical=&#8221;80px&#8221; box_shadow_blur=&#8221;110px&#8221; box_shadow_spread=&#8221;-30px&#8221; box_shadow_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.48)&#8221;][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column_inner][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.4&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||16px&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Read more !<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/microsites.diocesemontreal.org\/microsites\/sasmad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2021\/07\/Our-story.pdf&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text=&#8221;History of SASMAD\/PHC&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;left&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.4&#8243; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;23px&#8221; button_bg_color=&#8221;#0d8de8&#8243; button_border_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0)&#8221; button_border_radius=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_font=&#8221;Karla|700|||||||&#8221; button_icon=&#8221;%%20%%&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;14px|20px|14px|20px|true|false&#8221; button_bg_color__hover_enabled=&#8221;on&#8221; button_bg_color__hover=&#8221;#000000&#8243; button_bg_enable_color__hover=&#8221;on&#8221; custom_padding__hover_enabled=&#8221;on&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|30px||&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; specialty=&#8221;on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;About&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.6.0&#8243; width=&#8221;92.9%&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset6&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.4&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Gentium Basic|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;50px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; width=&#8221;123.8%&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;|-20px||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|15px|35px|||&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;15px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;40px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;25px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 50px;font-family: 'Gentium Basic', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;font-weight: bold\">Sister Madeleine St. Michel, our founder<\/span><\/p>\n<p>A nurse at heart, Sister Madeleine studied nursing at the H\u00f4tel-Dieu de Montr\u00e9al and then became a Sister of the Hospitallers of St. Joseph, a community dedicated to serving the poor and the sick with tenderness and compassion. As early as 1676, the community of R.H.S.J. (Hospitaller Sisters of St. Joseph), in addition to providing health and nursing care, administered the property of the H\u00f4tel-Dieu Hospital, located in the centre of the city, at the foot of the eastern slope of Mount Royal. The first H\u00f4tel-Dieu was built by Jeanne Mance in 1644, at the very beginning of the colony. It was enlarged and rebuilt after three major fires and was the only hospital in Montreal until 1822.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/microsites.diocesemontreal.org\/microsites\/sasmad\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2021\/07\/Sister-Madeleine.pdf&#8221;

But it is certain that two saints had a real historical influence on the foundation and mission of SASMAD\/PHC in the Catholic archdiocese of Montreal. They are Jeanne Mance, the first nurse in Montreal, and St. Jude, named after the first parish on the Island of Montreal that offered spiritual guidance to the sick and elderly at home.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243;
