As a grassroots, volunteer-driven community-based organization, Healing Hands Ministries Medical & Dental Clinic is a beacon of hope providing reliable, efficient, low-cost medical and dental care to the neediest of these – in a nurturing, welcoming environment. Healing Hands Ministries opened its doors in 2007. Friends call it a modern day barn-raising miracle, where a host of individuals and church partners built the clinic from the ground up generously gave time, money and expertise. It is a ‘beacon of light’ to needy families – a visible light, offering hope to the seemingly invisible uninsured. Healing Hands Ministries is located in the heart of Dallas with the highest density of Section 8 Housing, where 60 percent of the children are on free/reduced lunch, a key poverty indicator. They are the working poor ~ many on the brink of homelessness. The clinic is the medical home for uninsured patients, helping them avoid expensive area hospital ER visits for primary care. Here patients receive comprehensive medical and dental services including pediatric care, well-woman care, diabetes education, laboratory services, asthma education, prescription drug benefits, monthly immunizations, social service referral, and specialty care clinics such as orthopedics and arthritis. Healing Hands collaborates with other community providers to coordinate referrals outside its scope of services including extensive diagnostic testing and surgical services. Healing Hands Ministries receives no government funding and relies solely on community volunteers, donors and businesses. It is a health care model that takes no tax-payer dollars, yet saves tax-payers millions. |
