The **SPDM \- Paulista Association for the Development of Medicine** is a non-profit, philanthropic civil association, recognized as being of federal, state, and municipal public utility — respectively by Decrees No. 57\.925, dated 03/04/1966; No. 40\.103, dated 05/17/1962; and No. 8\.911, dated 07/30/1970\.
The Institution operates at federal, state, and municipal levels, in alignment with national health and education policies, and also functions as an accredited social organization in several states, managing health services and institutions through agreements and management contracts.
The Association’s primary directive is its integration into the health system, focused on disease treatment, prevention, and promotion of primary, secondary, and tertiary health care, strengthening ties with local communities and reaffirming its social commitment to serve all individuals without discrimination.
With institutional growth, SPDM has expanded its scope of action through ongoing projects in Social Assistance and Education. This broad range of activities increasingly consolidates SPDM as a large-scale philanthropic institution pursuing economic, social, and environmental sustainability.
Its four superintendencies — Hospital São Paulo, Affiliated Institutions, **Integrated Health Care Program (PAIS)**, and Education — are managed by highly skilled technical professionals with outstanding expertise.
Thus, SPDM effectively contributes to the continuous improvement of services provided by Brazil’s Unified Health System (SUS), primarily aiming to ensure universality and equitable access to health services, essential for human and social development. To this end, it combines cutting-edge technology with high-quality medical care delivered by multidisciplinary teams comprising nurses, physical therapists, pharmacists, nutritionists, speech-language pathologists, clinical biochemists, psychologists, technologists, social workers, dentists, and others.
**The Integrated Health Care Program** began operations in 2001 in the municipality of São Paulo and later expanded to other municipalities and states. Since its inception, **PAIS** has sought, in partnership with public authorities, to strengthen and consolidate health services offered to SUS users.
The Program aims to improve population health indicators and quality of life, guided — among other principles — by comprehensiveness and equity, with a strategic vision for health service management established through a process of continuous improvement.
### **Inclusion**
SPDM offers employment opportunities at its hospital units, including career development plans, for persons with disabilities. To this end, it periodically publishes job announcements targeting such professionals in major newspapers across São Paulo and in municipalities where its units are located.
**Mission**
To promote integrated health actions in partnership with public management, ethically and humanely benefiting the population, ensuring technical excellence, social responsibility, and environmental stewardship.
**Vision**
To be a reference in health service management across all levels of care, guaranteeing high-quality care to populations in partner municipalities and states.
