Celebrating National Rural Health Day: Recognizing the Vital Role of Our Rural Health Clinics

Share This Post:

Oklahoma City, OK 11/21/2024 – As part of National Rural Health Day, Xpress Wellness is proud to celebrate and recognize the essential contributions of our rural health clinics in ensuring accessible and quality healthcare for rural communities. This annual observance, held on the third Thursday of November, shines a light on the unique health challenges faced by rural communities and the remarkable healthcare providers who work tirelessly to meet these needs.

At Xpress Wellness, we are committed to improving the health and well-being of individuals in rural areas by offering comprehensive, patient-centered care at our 40 rural health clinics across Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas. These clinics are a cornerstone of our mission to improve access to care, provide timely medical services, and support the overall health of communities that may otherwise lack access to basic health care services.

“Our rural health clinics are vital to maintaining the health of the individuals and families who rely on us, often with limited access to larger medical facilities,” said Dr. Tony Hill, Chief Medical Officer at Xpress Wellness & Integrity Urgent Care.  “On National Rural Health Day, we are proud to honor the dedicated healthcare professionals who serve in our rural areas, and we reaffirm our commitment to providing compassionate, accessible care where it is most needed.”

Key Contributions of Our Rural Health Clinics:

  • Comprehensive Healthcare: Our rural health clinics provide urgent care, primary care, mental health support, and occupational medicine. With a focus on continuity and coordination of care, we work closely with local specialists and hospitals to ensure patients receive the best possible treatment. We also provide medical and behavioral health services to nursing homes and assisted living facilities in many of our locations. 
  • Telemedicine Services: To further extend our reach, we have integrated telemedicine into our rural health clinics. This innovative service enables patients to access care remotely, reducing the need to travel long distances for certain healthcare services.
  • Local Employment and Support: Our clinics not only provide critical healthcare services but also contribute to the local economy by creating jobs in rural areas. From medical professionals to administrative staff, our clinics offer valuable career opportunities and contribute to community sustainability.
  • Community Engagement: We understand that healthcare goes beyond just medical treatment. Our rural health clinics actively engage with the community through educational programs, health screenings, and outreach initiatives to help improve overall community health and wellness.

A Bright Future for Rural Health

As we celebrate National Rural Health Day, Xpress Wellness and Integrity Urgent Care collectively are committed to enhancing the infrastructure of our rural health clinics, expanding services, and advocating for policies that address the unique challenges faced by rural communities. We remain dedicated to bridging the gap in healthcare access and improving health outcomes for rural residents.

“Rural communities deserve the same high-quality healthcare as those in urban areas, and we will continue to advocate for resources and solutions to ensure these vital services are available to all,” added Dr. Tony Hill, CMO for Xpress Wellness.

Join us in celebrating the incredible impact of our rural health clinics, and help us continue to improve health and access for rural communities nationwide.
