| WHEREAS, A delegation of leaders from CHRISTUS Santa Rosa | ||
| Health System is gathering on March 24, 2015, to take part in the | ||
| institution's Advocacy Day at the State Capitol; and | ||
| WHEREAS, CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Health System is a Catholic | ||
| institution that provides not-for-profit medical care to San | ||
| Antonio and the surrounding region; founded in 1869 by the Sisters | ||
| of Charity of the Incarnate Word, CHRISTUS Santa Rosa continues the | ||
| order's healing ministry through five full-service hospitals and a | ||
| number of specialty centers treating both adults and children; and | ||
| WHEREAS, In an effort to extend its reach to even more young | ||
| patients, the system is transforming its campus in the heart of | ||
| downtown San Antonio into a world-class, freestanding children's | ||
| hospital; the revamped facility will boast expanded programs, | ||
| services, and research capabilities, further enhancing CHRISTUS | ||
| Santa Rosa's reputation as a premier source of pediatric care; and | ||
| WHEREAS, This worthy new undertaking benefits from a | ||
| partnership with Baylor College of Medicine, one of the leading | ||
| medical schools in the United States; the college has pledged to | ||
| recruit more than 170 pediatric specialists to the Children's | ||
| Hospital of San Antonio to offer expertise in oncology, | ||
| cardiology, neurology, orthopedics, surgery, and other | ||
| disciplines; the first 10 members of Baylor's new pediatric | ||
| residency program based at the hospital are slated to begin their | ||
| training in July; and | ||
| WHEREAS, CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Health System has long served | ||
| as a beacon of hope in the San Antonio community, and on this | ||
| special occasion, it is indeed fitting to honor the tireless | ||
| commitment of its administrators, physicians, and staff to | ||
| ensuring their patients the highest possible quality of care; | ||
| now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the Senate of the 84th Texas Legislature | ||
| hereby recognize March 24, 2015, as CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Health | ||
| System Advocacy Day at the State Capitol and extend a warm | ||
| welcome to members of the system's leadership team who are | ||
| visiting Austin today. | ||
