Welcome back to our Passport through Texas series! Our second installment takes us to Public Health Region (PHR) 9/10 in West Texas 🤠 PHRs are the local presence of DSHS and work in communities to serve the public health needs of Texas. PHRs help screen Texans for diseases and connect them to needed services. PHRs also provide medical responses during public health and weather emergencies. West Texas is home to the largest Mexico border area in Texas, spanning from El Paso to Terrell County. An estimated 40 million people per year cross from Mexico to work, shop, vacation, and get their health care needs met. One uncommon, but important, part of meeting these public health care needs is limiting radiation exposure. DSHS does this through effective licensing, registration, inspection, enforcement, and emergency response. In West Texas – and across the state – our inspectors do the important work of making sure these facilities are safe and compliant. Follow us as we will continue sharing more facts about our PHRs and public health in Texas. #publichealth #texas

🌀 When #HurricaneBeryl hit, DSHS was there every step of the way. We activated 90 DSHS emergency response staff to facilitate patient evacuations and support medical sheltering. Hundreds of additional public health responders continue to work around the clock to ensure the health care systems and patients are supported as Texas communities in Beryl's wake recover. #texas #publichealth #emergencyresponse #emergency
