Camillians

Italian priest, nurse and saint

The Camillians or Clerics Regular, Ministers to the Sick () are a Catholic religious order founded in 1582 by St. Camillus de Lellis (1550–1614). A large red cross was chosen by the founder as the distinguishing badge for the members of the Order to wear upon their black cassocks: this was later adopted as the international symbol of medical care. In the past, because of the red cross on their apparel, they were also referred to as the Crociferi. , 1080 Camillians serve in 35 countries. They use the postnominal initials of M.I. (Ministri degli Infermi).
