ABILENE, TX – On Thursday morning, Hendrick Medical Center welcomed 40 military medical personnel as part of the Department of Defense COVID-19 response operation.
The military personnel will work with the hospital staff as they continue to battle COVID-19 in Taylor County and surrounding areas.
“We are grateful to the State of Texas and to the Department of Defense for designating additional staff to Abilene,” said Brad Holland, president, and CEO for Hendrick Health. “As COVID-19 remains active in our local communities, high COVID hospitalization rates continue to be seen across our three hospitals. The military medical personnel will help alleviate some of the burden our caregivers have been facing since March.”
