This Fourth of July marks 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, a milestone that invites both celebration and reflection.

As we honor our nation’s history, we also recognize that the promise of freedom, health, and opportunity has not always been experienced equally by everyone.

At Compassion Health Care, our work is rooted in serving people, strengthening communities, and helping ensure that quality healthcare is within reach for all.

This Independence Day, we are grateful for the neighbors we serve and hopeful for the future we can continue building together.

From all of us at Compassion Health Care, we wish you a safe and meaningful Fourth of July.

In observance of Independence Day, all Compassion Health Care locations will be closed on Friday, July 3, so our team can enjoy the holiday weekend with their families.

We will resume normal business hours on Monday, July 6.

If you have a medical emergency, please call 911 or visit your nearest emergency department.

From all of us at Compassion Health Care, we wish you a safe, happy, and meaningful Independence Day weekend! ❤️🤍💙

Sometimes the biggest “thank you” comes in the smallest package. ❤️

A young patient at our James Austin Health Center recently surprised our front desk team with this hand-drawn picture that simply says, “thank u for helping.”

Moments like these remind us why we’re here every day. Whether it’s a warm smile at check-in, answering questions, or helping patients feel welcome, our front desk staff are often the very first face of Compassion Health Care, and they make a difference that lasts.

To our incredible James Austin team: thank you for showing compassion long before a patient ever sees a provider.

And to our young artist… thank you for making our day. We’ll treasure this drawing for a long time. 💙💚
