After a serious case of COVID-19, the long road back to wellness can include many twists and turns.

So, JPS Health Network has assembled a team of experts who get together every other week to serve people who, although they've recovered from the virus, still face its lingering after effects. 

Some JPS Health Network caregivers are truly hometown heroes.

Three years ago, when JPS Health Network decided to purchase a linear accelerator, there was no doubt it was going to be a tremendous benefit for cancer patients.

But who would run it?

During Thanksgiving, Daniel Garcia tested positive for COVID-19. Suddenly, he was battling for his life.

It’s still very important to be vigilant against COVID-19. But that’s no excuse to neglect other parts of your health and wellness.

When a once-in-a-generation winter storm left millions of Texans without power last week, it could have left hundreds of Tarrant County residents without much-needed COVID-19 vaccinations, too.

COVID-19 has made it tough for people across the country to find places where they can have a non-emergency surgery as hospitals focus their resources on caring for infected patients instead.

When JPS Health Network leaders approached Dr. Rick Miller about becoming the institution’s Chief Medical Officer, he was intrigued. But he didn’t want to give up his roles as chief of the Surgery Department and as a practicing surgeon for the promotion.

For Fort Worth resident Bryan Ayala, COVID-19 struck quickly and hit hard.

At the beginning of May, he was more concerned about the fact that he’d been laid off from his job than he was about catching the virus that was sweeping the globe. In those days, it was thought that COVID was something only people over 60 or with pre-existing health conditions had to worry about and Bryan, 21, had none.

One day, without warning, he noticed he couldn’t take a deep breath.

Thousands of JPS Health Network team members have rolled up their sleeves to get COVID-19 vaccinations.  

Now they’re urging Tarrant County residents to do the same.
