A Model for Whole-Person Care

At Church Health we know that hope, health, and healing happen when we consider the whole person. That’s why we connect the dots across faith, medicine, movement, work, emotions, nutrition, and friends and family. Whether caring for our patients or reaching out to the community, we hold high the dignity and worth of each person. 

Caring for the whole person means a patient at Church Health can see a primary care physician, an optometrist, a dietitian, a health coach, a behavioral health specialist, a physical therapist, and even a dentist all within steps of each other. At the Well, Church Health’s prevention and wellness center for children and families, even the young ones learn positive health habits. And our partnership with the YMCA of Memphis & the Mid-South along with Church Health’s Nutrition Hub provide patients with robust resources to live a healthy and well-balanced life.  

This is our Model for Healthy Living, and it recognizes that our lives are complicated. We are better together when we help one another access the quality health care necessary to live with dignity, vitality and joy.
