At Teaching Hospitals of Texas, Hospital Week is more than a tradition — it’s a meaningful celebration of the people, places, and purpose that shape our state’s healthcare landscape. As we recognize National Hospital Week 2025, we proudly honor the physicians, nurses, clinical teams, administrators, educators, and support staff who keep our hospitals operating and our communities healthy.

As Texas’ largest network of public and non-profit teaching hospitals, our member institutions are more than care providers — they are community anchors, centers of innovation, and critical components of Texas’ healthcare infrastructure. Every day, they deliver lifesaving treatment, train the next generation of healthcare professionals, provide integrated, cost-saving care, including for Texans without insurance, and conduct research that transforms care for tomorrow.

Our hospitals are at the forefront of:

  • Medical education and workforce development
  • Advanced trauma and specialty care
  • Community health initiatives and outreach
  • Cutting-edge clinical research and innovation
  • Providing cost-effective healthcare including in areas of highest need

This week, we spotlight the dedication of all who contribute to these missions. From the emergency room to the classroom, our hospitals are powered by people with passion and purpose.

Teaching Hospitals of Texas members are deeply committed to improving health outcomes through education. Whether it’s launching high school pipeline programs like JPS Health Network’s SHINE Program, investing in nurse training and retention strategies, or advocating for funding that supports clinical education, our hospitals lead by example.

By training tomorrow’s workforce and expanding access to care in every corner of Texas, we are actively shaping a more sustainable, and healthier future.

This Hospital Week, we pause to say thank you to every individual who makes Texas hospitals a place of healing, learning, and discovery. Your commitment does not go unnoticed. Your work matters. And your impact is felt far beyond the hospital walls.

To our member hospitals and the thousands of professionals who serve in them: you represent the strength and spirit of healthcare in Texas.

Happy Hospital Week 2025!
