Just a mention of The Center for Children and Women and you’ll get the type of reaction that many health care organizations envy. The all-inclusive health care model, beautiful clinical spaces and friendly faces make The Center a part of the Texas Children’s family that we can all be proud of.
Employees at the Southwest location recently celebrated five years in operation, a time in which they have consistently increased the number of members served and services offered.
“I’m extremely proud of the work put in by my team and the support that we receive from Texas Children’s as a whole,” said Frances Monroe, director of the Southwest facility. “We are absolutely obsessed with our members and how to take care of their needs. In the next five years, our efforts in this area will only grow.”
All about The Center
The Center for Children and Women is designed to ensure that all patients have access to proper care by providing extended hours to accommodate the families’ busy schedules. The Center’s health care model provides comprehensive care for the well-being of the whole patient. This is done with the help of many medical professionals on site every day such as pediatricians, advance nurse practitioners, OB/GYNs, certified nurse midwives, optometry, imaging, a laboratory and an onsite pharmacy, and behavioral health specialists. The medical home provides a means to address the shortage of primary medical care for families.
Awards earned
The Center has received several awards and recognitions since it opened such as; The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Level III Recognition four years in a row. The Center is NCQA Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) and Patient Centered Specialty Practice (PCSP) recognized. The Center for Children and Women was the first OB/GYN practice in Texas to receive PCSP designation. In addition, the Center is COLA Certified for clinical laboratory compliance and received COLA’s Laboratory Excellence Award and acknowledged by Centering Healthcare Institute as an accredited Centering Pregnancy site, to name a few.
