Our residents main training site is Sacred Heart Pensacola which is part of Ascension, the nation's largest Catholic, nonprofit health system. Ascension Sacred Heart Pensacola is committed to delivering compassionate, personalized care to all, with special attention to persons living in poverty and those most vulnerable. The rich history of Ascension Sacred Heart began with the mission of the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul, an order of Catholic sisters, who were called to care for our community's sickest members. They responded to Pensacola’s need for modern healthcare by opening the first Catholic hospital in Florida in September of 1915. Since then, Ascension Sacred Heart has enhanced that mission with today's latest technology to provide innovative advanced care for the most complicated conditions.

Ascension Sacred Heart Pensacola is a full-service 566-bed hospital with 24/7 emergency care that serves the Northwest Florida region and is a destination for specialty care and regional services that include:

The Regional Heart and Vascular Institute
The area's only nationally certified Comprehensive Stroke Center
A Level 1 Trauma Center
Ascension Sacred Heart Cancer Center
Kidney Transplant Program
