The new Hornsby Bend Health & Wellness Center will offer primary care and behavioral health services to low-income residents.
Central Health is opening its new Hornsby Bend Health & Wellness Center on Saturday, the first of several clinics the local health district will soon launch in Eastern Travis County.
“Up until now, the 10,000 or so people who live in and around Hornsby Bend had to travel a minimum of 12 miles by road to get to any doctor, which a lot of people with low incomes and chronic conditions simply can’t manage,” Mike Clark-Madison, a communications representative for Central Health, said. “According to census data, about 2,500 people in and around Hornsby Bend lack health insurance. So it’s a community where a center will make a huge difference.
