Who Is CHRISTUS Health?

What Texas Patients Need to Know

CHRISTUS Health is one of the largest faith-based, nonprofit healthcare systems in Texas — with more than 60 hospitals and 600 care sites across the state. From North Texas to the Gulf Coast, CHRISTUS serves millions of Texans each year in both major metro areas and rural communities.

While many patients receive compassionate care through CHRISTUS’ mission-driven model, its large, complex network has also been the site of serious medical errors and preventable harm.
