St John of God Health Care Inc, which was founded in Perth, Australia, in 1895 by the Sisters of St John of God, is a wholly owned and controlled entity of St John of God Australia Ltd, a civil and canon law entity established in 2004 to sponsor the ministry that until then was run solely by the Sisters of St John of God.

The Sisters remain members of St John of God Australia Ltd and share sponsorship of the ministry with nine of the Dioceses in which it operates, as well as the Hospitaller Order of St John of God, which founded St John of God Halswell. This collaboration maintains a structure committed to ensuring sound and continuing governance and stewardship.

The nine non-executive Trustees of St John of God Health Care appoint members of the Governing Board with a wide variety of backgrounds who are able to provide direction and guidance to the Group Management Committee, which oversees the group's performance.
