Being prepared matters. Being prepared for your health starts with a plan. During National Health Care Decisions Day, it's important to remember that completing advance directives to improve end-of-life conversations should be as commonplace as financial planning. Unfortunately, only a third of people have completed these legal documents. Whether it's a Medical Power of Attorney or a Directive to Physicians and Family or Surrogates, taking time to document your wishes today helps ensure your voice is heard, your values are respected, and your loved ones are supported when decisions matter most.

April is National Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Month, reminding us of the importance of routine cancer screenings. Affecting nearly 1 in 8 women, breast cancer has significantly higher survival rates when detected early. Early breast exams and mammograms are critical for long-term monitoring and effective screening.

We took three of our inpatient rehab patients outside to enjoy some time in the weather with some simple kite-flying! It was a great opportunity to boost morale while encouraging social interaction away from the hospital setting. Recovery can sometimes feel overwhelming with its own unique challenges, but we're grateful to be able to provide moments like this for our patients that support their individual journeys.

The calcium scoring test is designed for adults aged 45 to 80 who show no symptoms and no known heart disease. It is recommended for people who have one or more risk factors for heart disease. These include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and a family history of heart disease. Diabetes, obesity, and to***co use are also important risk factors. The calcium scoring test helps identify concerns early so patients can work with their doctor on the next steps.

Lord Jesus Christ,

You are the Resurrection and the Life. In You, death is defeated, and hope is restored. Strengthen our faith so that, even in times of loss and uncertainty, we may trust in Your promise of eternal life. Unite us as one people in Your love, and let the joy of Your rising fill our hearts with peace.

Amen

Wishing you and your loved ones a Happy Easter!

Rain is like your typical toddler—she loves watching Peppa Pig, eating popcorn, and playing with her kitchen set. With the help of speech and occupational therapy, she’s learning to communicate more clearly and manage her emotions through sensory activities like deep pressure and movement. This Autism Acceptance Month, we celebrate victories like Rain’s and the hard work put in to help each child thrive. Whether it’s improving communication, making new friends, or learning emotional regulation, we’re here to support every child along the way!

In honor of Women’s History Month, we are celebrating women saints like Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross. Born Edith Stein in 1891 into a Jewish family, she was a brilliant philosopher whose search for truth led her to Catholicism after reading the writings of St. Teresa of Ávila. Entering the Carmelite order, she continued to offer her intellect and faith to the Church amid rising N**i persecution. Arrested in 1942 and sent to Auschwitz, she died in the gas chambers, offering her life in solidarity with her people. Canonized in 1998, she is honored as a philosopher, mystic and modern martyr whose courage and conviction continue to inspire generations.

This Women’s History Month, we are celebrating the courage, compassion and impact women continue to have across our communities and workplaces. For Kristina Griffin, supporting and advocating for other women is at the heart of what this month means.
“One story that stands out is Kasey Curry, rehabilitation manager at Good Shepherd Marshall. She recognized that the needs of the children and families she served exceeded what could be accommodated in the existing clinic and took the initiative to seek funding to expand the space. What began as a modest therapy setting has grown into a full-scale center with specialized therapy rooms, a sensory room and equipment designed for pediatric care.”
This Women’s History Month, we’re celebrating stories like this and the women across our ministries whose leadership and determination continue to open doors and expand care for those who need it most.

Today on Heritage Day, we gather as members of CHRISTUS Health, united by the heritage entrusted to us by the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word of Houston, the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word of San Antonio and the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth, who continue to guide us in compassion and service. Bless all of us, that our homes and workplaces may reflect Your love and peace. Grant us the strength to support one another, to lift up those in need and to be signs of hope. Help us build communities marked by belonging, respect and compassion. Pour out Your blessings on our ministry, our Associates, our Congregations and all who partner in our care.
