St Joseph’s Hospital is a private hospital Situated in the rural area of Naduvil Grama Panchayath in Kannur District of Kerala. It is a charitable institution, the dream of Catholic Diocese of Thalassery. Majority peoples this area migrated from the central part of Kerala looking for advanced agricultural facilities. With health-status many people became the slave of sick due to hard work, climate changes, and lack of nutrition food. They had a Government Hospital at Taliparamba which is 20 km from this sloping territory for their restorative needs. In this time Mar Sebastian Valloppilly, Arch Bishop of Thalassery Archdiocese take the initiative to starting a charitable trust in Alakode. Hospital had its humble beginning in 1961 under the authority of Rev. Fr. Matthew Murinjakallel, who was the Parish Priest of Vellad Parish with the gifts of Mar Sebastian Valloppilly and the assistance of Parish Committee individuals and cherishing pilgrims of this territory is for the arrangement of general therapeutic facilities to local people.
The hospital stands for Christian values and that has become the soul of the hospital. There is no discrimination of caste, class or religion. Now it has grown as the only one hospital in the area and there is the only hospital for the BPL people in this hilly area.
