Holy Spirit Health System, provides comprehensive inpatient and outpatient services and includes a regional network of six family health centers, one internal medicine office, a pediatric practice and two women's health centers. [2] The health system employs over 550 physicians in a variety of specialties to include women's health, cardiovascular care and orthopedic, stroke, and rehabilitative services. [5] Holy Spirit is a Level III Neonatal intensive-care unit. [2] Physician residency programs, affiliated with Memorial Hospital in York, Pennsylvania, exist on-site for emergency medicine and surgery. [6]
