Thank you, Tarrant County! Our community handed JPS Health Network a huge vote of confidence on Election Day by approving the largest bond in county history -- and the first one for the Tarrant County Hospital District in 33 years. We are honored and grateful to serve a community that appreciates the healthcare JPS has provided for more than 110 years. We remain committed to making lives better for our patients and our community -- today and for decades to come.
Because the voters trust in their publicly supported healthcare system, JPS will be able to not only improve patient care but will leverage the bond money to bring in new revenue through creative public-private partnerships.
Our more than 6,500 team members thank the Tarrant County Commissioners Court and members of the Citizens Blue Ribbon Committee (CBRC) who dedicated long hours to thoughtfully research future healthcare needs in our community. In coming days, the Hospital District Board of Managers, along with the Commissioners Court and JPS administration, will move forward to prioritize the recommendations of the CBRC – four additional community-based health centers, a new mental and behavioral health hospital, a new in-patient tower, a new cancer center and a new day surgery center.
