The T.L.L. Temple Foundation, along with the Episcopal Health Foundation and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, sponsored the Texas A&M University Rural & Community Health Institute to develop a blueprint for rural healthcare in light of the rural hospital closure crisis. The full report is available at this link.
Three rural Texas communities were the focus, and the report includes a blueprint for each. Additionally, ARCHI prepared presentations to share with stakeholders in each community. Although each community is unique, the commonalities discovered in this research are “lessons learned” for rural communities in Texas and across America.
