A hospital closing on the southern sector of Bexar County that has historically been overlooked and neglected is devastating.
Texas Vista Medical Center ICU nurses care for a patient in the ICU in January 2022. There are plans to close the hospital, one of only two on the South Side.The southern sector of Bexar County deserves better than another Band-Aid. Instead, this part of our community should prosper through visionary growth and economic development.If a hospital closed on the opposite part of town, residents could choose from the many other hospitals in that area.
Though the new University Health hospital is a few years away because of poor utility infrastructure that first must be developed, this community deserves a visionary plan with room to grow. This is why I also supported $2.5 million from commissioners court to build new housing for theadjacent to Texas A&M University-San Antonio and soon, the new University Health hospital. This injection of development will be a catalyst for community economic development.
