Hornsby Bend Health and Wellness Center Grand Opening and Community Celebration
As over 200 people celebrated with food, games, and song, Central Health’s Hornsby Bend Health and Wellness Center officially opened on Saturday, October 21. Along with tasty tacos, Zumba moves, and a Teddy Bear Clinic staffed by CommUnityCare’s Hornsby Bend providers, the event signaled new and better healthcare access for the more than 10,000 residents in and around the Eastern Travis County community near the Colorado River.
Along with Del Valle to the south and Colony Park to the north, Hornsby Bend is a focus of Central Health’s efforts to bring sorely needed services to the county’s healthcare deserts. The hospital district, guided by its Healthcare Equity Plan, is growing and expanding to close persistent gaps in access and repair Travis County’s healthcare safety net.
