We are dedicated to delivering high quality, compassionate care to Little Falls and surrounding areas. CHI St. The cornerstone of CHI St. St.

Gabriel’s Health is a multi-facility health care entity which also includes Family Medical Center (a multispecialty clinic), Little Falls Orthopedics (a orthopedic and podiatry practice), St. Camillus Place (a 14-bed home for adults with developmental disabilities), and Alverna Apartments (a 60-unit, HUD-subsidized senior housing complex), all located in Little Falls. Gabriel’s Health is St. Gabri

el’s Hospital, which was founded by the Franciscan Sisters of Little Falls (FSLF) in 1891 and received its first patient in January 1892. The first hospital-only building opened in 1916 (portions still in use today). The hospital continued to grow throughout the 20th century until it reached a maximum of 124-beds in the early 1980s. The introduction of the Prospective Pricing System and changes in Medicare and other hospital reimbursement led to a gradual reduction in beds throughout the 1990s and eventually incentives related to becoming a critical access hospital (CAH) resulted in downsizing to our current license of 49-beds. Gabriel’s Hospital as well as its affiliated clinics and home health agency are certified by The Joint Commission, a national quality accreditation organization. Family Medical Center is CHI St. Gabriel’s Health’s second largest entity with approximately 25 providers (physicians and mid-level practitioners) in the following specialties: family medicine, general surgery, internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology and pediatrics. It functions as a department of St. Gabriel’s Hospital and has locations in Little Falls, Pierz and Randall) and joined CHI St. Gabriel’s Health in 2010.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR DAISY AWARD WINNER - Shelly Faust

Late on a Friday night, I found myself in the ER experiencing an unbearable amount of pain. From the moment Shelly Faust got me settled in my room, she was empathetic and compassionate. She immediately began tending to my needs and trying to do anything she could to help me get more comfortable. Shelly's bedside manner was incredible. She was so personal and
"chatty" continually engaging us in conversation that made us feel not just comfortable, but genuinely welcome and cared for. Shelly was so thoughtful and made sure my mom was just as comfortable, going so far as to bring her some much-needed coffee and a blanket while we awaited test results. To top it all off, Shelly's compassion extended beyond her shift; she even followed up with me the next day to see if I was experiencing any improvement in my pain. I am immensely thankful that Shelly was there that night to care for me. This isn't an
isolated experience; she has also cared for some of my family members in the past, and each time, we have been blessed with the same consistent and compassionate care.
Pictured with Shelly are Kelly Stangl and Maryrose Knutson.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at the Annual Family Picnic, sponsored by our hospital’s Missions and Values Team! 🍔🌭

We had a wonderful time welcoming our new Hospital President, Jeff Lange, and his wife, Tracy.

As always the kids enjoyed the bounce houses, park, and yard games, while the adults took advantage of the sunny afternoon to visit and catch up with one another.🛝

We’d also like to give a huge shout-out to the volunteers of our first-ever Kickball Tournament between St. Gabriel’s Hospital and Family Medical Center.

Congratulations to the Hospital for taking home the championship! 🥇

Yeehaw! Get your chaps and pitching shoes on, folks, because the National Horseshoe Pitchers Association (NHPA) championship in Weston, WI, from July 13th to the 25th was a rootin' tootin' good time!

And talk about a dynamic duo! St. Gabriel's Health's very own volunteer, Tim Brigner, and his sensational wife, Carolyn, didn't just show up to throw a little iron – they dominated! These two horseshoe-hurlin' heroes both wrangled the World Horseshoe Tournament titles in Wisconsin in their respective classes! That's right, a double dose of championship glory for the Brigners! Talk about a ringer of a family!

Next time you see them, give 'em a good ol' fashioned "Yee-haw!" and a tip of your Stetson. They've earned it!
