Happy Earth Day from PPGH!

Today is a great reminder that caring for our community also means caring for the environment we all share.

We’re proud to share that Palo Pinto General Hospital was awarded $240,000 through the State Energy Conservation Office as part of the Rural and Community Hospitals LED Lighting Program. This project will upgrade both our interior and exterior lighting to energy-efficient LED.

This isn’t just about new lights. It means reducing energy use, lowering long-term costs, and creating a more sustainable future for our hospital and our community.

It’s one more way we’re improving our hospital environment and using our resources wisely so we can continue providing quality care to our community.

Join us this Friday from 9 AM to 12 PM for our Kids Health Connection!

This event will feature a Teddy Bear Clinic for the kids—an interactive, play-based experience where children bring their stuffed animals for a “check-up.” Kids will act as the doctor for their bear, practicing simple medical care like bandaging and check-ups in a fun, safe environment.

The goal is to help children and their families become more familiar and comfortable with doctor visits and hospital settings, reducing fear and building confidence for future care.

Kids will receive a free stuffed bear, along with giveaways to help “make their bear all better!” There will also be games, photo booths, and local resources.

We hope to see you there!

"As the Director of Marketing, Foundation, and Auxiliary here at Palo Pinto General Hospital, I get a front row seat to just how much our Auxiliary does for this hospital and our community.

This week is Auxiliary Week, and it feels like the right time to say what probably doesn’t get said enough.

These women show up. They run the gift shop, welcome and direct patients, help out in areas like Physical Therapy and the Emergency Room, clean, make kits, check on patients, and step in wherever they’re needed. They also help with events like our Easter Egg Hunt and so many others throughout the year.

They give their time and energy not just to our patients, but to our staff too, and I know I couldn’t do my job without them.

They are a big part of why this place feels like it does… like a family.

I’m incredibly proud to work alongside them and grateful for everything they pour into PPGH.

If you see one of our Auxiliary members this week, take a second to tell them thank you. It will mean more than you know."
