Last night, our campus turned into a block party. 💙

The Tarrant County Hospital District Police Department hosted our first National Night Out, bringing team members, patients, families, and community partners together with the officers who serve this campus every day.

The Tarrant County Hospital District Police Department has protected JPS since 1994, and its officers know this place and the people in it. That familiarity is exactly what nights like this are built on. "National Night Out gives us an opportunity to interact with our community and strengthen those relationships in a relaxed, non-enforcement environment," said Danny Webb, Executive Director of Public Safety and Parking Services and Police Chief.

Thank you to everyone who came out, and to our officers for putting it together.

On this we want to highlight our Car Seat Program and everyone who helped make this a success. 💛

Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians met with families one car at a time.

They checked each seat, made sure it was installed and used correctly, and walked parents through the questions that are hard to answer from a manual. Families in need were also able to receive a car seat at no cost.

Your child's safety is always worth a double-check. Thank you to every family who came out, and to the technicians who spent their Saturday helping them drive away with confidence.

For more than 30 years, the Diamond Hill-Jarvis Community Clinic has been part of the neighborhood. 💙

When it opened in 1994, families in Diamond Hill asked for one thing, which was good care close to home. Today, neighbors can come in for checkups, X-rays, lab work, social services, and prescriptions, and many of our team members speak both English and Spanish.

Having a clinic down the street means a sick child can be seen without a long drive across town, and a question about a prescription can be answered in the language you're most comfortable with. That's what a neighborhood clinic is for.

This community Tuesday a new connection between JPS and our community begins! 💛

JPS Health Network welcomed the inaugural cohort of the JPS Citizens Healthcare Academy, a six-week interactive experience bringing together faith leaders representing churches and ministries across Tarrant County.

Each participant was personally invited by a member of the Tarrant County Commissioners Court to take part in an inside look at JPS, our people, our services and the many ways we care for the communities we serve.

Today, participants heard from President and CEO Dr. Karen Duncan, COO Jill Farrell and Kim Hodgkinson, CFO for an introduction to JPS and our role in Tarrant County.

Over the next six weeks, the group will hear directly from JPS physicians, executives and clinical leaders and explore trauma, women’s services, behavioral health, oncology, community health, our workforce and more. They’ll also have opportunities to experience programs such as Street Medicine and Correctional Health. Through the Academy, we’re building stronger connections with trusted community leaders, sharing resources they can take back to the people they serve and creating new opportunities to work together to improve the health of Tarrant County.

Welcome to our first JPS Citizens Healthcare Academy cohort!
