St. Mary's Hospital is a private, non-for-profit hospital in the west end of Richmond, Virginia. It is a 391-bed hospital and serves the Central Virginia community and beyond. St. Mary's is affiliated with the Bon Secours Richmond Health System and the Sisters of Bon Secours.

Under the guidance of the Sisters of Bon Secours, St. Mary’s opened its doors in 1966. Over the years, the hospital expanded to help serve the community, growing from an initial size of 169 beds and only 250 employees. Today, St. Mary’s has evolved into a state-of-the-art 391-bed facility. The hospital continues to serve the community with the philosophy of good help to those in need, especially the poor and dying.

St. Mary’s has received a variety of awards for its quality of care. Highlights include being the first community hospital in Richmond to achieve Magnet Recognition by the American Nurses Credentialing Center for nursing excellence, in 2008.
