SAN JUAN DE DIOS COLLEGE
My Alma Mater's History:
San Juan de Dios College is a co-educational institution. A member school of the Manila
Archdiocesan and Parochial Schools Association (MAPSA) and the Catholic Education Association of the
Philippines.
It was June 16, 1913, a school of Nursing was opened, indulged with the aim of providing service no
only to the poor, but to the poorest of the poor. Though World War II had almost put its work of Charity to an
end, post war reconstruction and rehabilitation resulted in New Hospital in Dewey Boulevard, presently Roxas
Boulevard. Adjacent to it is the New College of Nursing, the school of Nursing defunct from 1936 to 1942,
re-opened in 1953. The college administered byt the Daughters of Charity of Daughter's of Charity of St. Vincent
de Paul, who's company was founded by the later, the universal patron of all works of Charity with co-foundress
St. Louise de MArillac, the patroness of all those who devote themselves to Christian Social work.
Then later, it opened a new course of Medical Technology which had received government recognition in
1969 and was absorbed by the college in 1972. And recently, year 1993, a new department was opened, the
Department of Physical Therapy. Thus training more students and molding them towards accomplishing the
mission inculcated to us by St. Vincent to the fullest and that is "Service....." Services to the people irregardless of
their status in life.
