Mission Statement

Raising funds and making friends to accomplish the mission of Peterson Health.

About This Cause

Peterson Health Foundation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization supported by more than 4,000 generous donors. These include individuals, corporations and private foundations. All gifts help provide facilities, equipment, technology, education and training to meet the health care needs of patients at Peterson Health. Peterson Health is a nonprofit, independent health network on a mission to provide exceptional, compassionate, patient-centered care to the Texas Hill Country. What started as a single facility in 1949 has expanded to 14 rooftops spanning nine counties, each united with a singular purpose to elevate the health of our community. Our flagship hospital, Peterson Regional Medical Center, is a 124-bed, not-for-profit community hospital located in Kerrville. This hub of our health network began a legacy of exceptional, compassionate, patient-centered care – forming the foundation of Peterson’s vision to offer world-class care, today, tomorrow, and always. Home to more than 1,000 full time employees and 250 medical professionals, Peterson Health remains the largest employer in Kerr County for decades. Peterson Health is alive and thriving thanks to the tireless dedication of individuals who see healthcare as their calling and their efforts have not gone unnoticed both here at home and on a national scale as they care for more people in more places every day. Named Best Places to Work by Modern Healthcare two years in a row is a testament to the environment we’ve created for our team. Our commitment to Elevating Health has earned many regional and national awards, including the highest distinction as a Top 20 Rural Community Hospital – the ONLY one in Texas. This honor elevated Peterson Health’s status in the healthcare arena on a national scale, serving as a benchmark for other rural hospitals as they strive to navigate the future of healthcare. While proud of numerous awards and accolades, we never loses focus on the real mission to provide the best patient experience and quality outcomes across all services. The main Peterson Health campus in Kerrville offers 26 key service lines, including the Emergency Department, Acute Rehabilitation Unit, The Baby Place (Texas Ten Step designated maternity unit), Women’s Services, Intensive Care Unit, Heart and Vascular Clinic, seven surgical suites, and an award-winning joint replacement program, “Back to Life.” The neighboring Pevehouse Ambulatory Care Center offers outpatient surgical services, radiology, imaging, labs, outpatient rehabilitation, and an advanced Wound Healing Center featuring two hyperbaric oxygen chambers. Peterson’s roster of facilities includes Peterson Hospice and Home Care, Peterson Medical Associates, Peterson Women’s Associates, Peterson Health Plaza (formerly Kerrville Medical Plaza and to include Peterson’s Outreach Lab), Peterson Community Care, and Peterson Urgent Care. Proudly, our footprint continues to expand in neighboring counties to include family practice clinics in Bandera, Comfort and Fredericksburg, as well as an outpatient rehabilitation clinic in Comfort. We have no intention of stopping there, and will continue to discover new opportunities to provide world-class care to the Texas Hill Country at large.
