Luckily, El Paso has a closely-knit community where we help one another. Wheelers throughout the city help each other out on short notices be it for simple advice, supplies or to help fix a broken chair. Our latest spinal cord injury group initiative is the incorporation of adaptive yoga lessons.
Health Care El Paso has four major rehabilitation hospitals and three long-term acute care hospitals throughout the city. However, El Paso has a long history of having a healthcare provider shortage.
Doctors, nurses, dentists, and allied health professionals who have decided to call El Paso home are often overworked and over-booked.
Ultimately, higher wages and greater opportunities often lure healthcare professionals to other markets. Fortunately, state and city leaders are determined to reverse the trend.
An aggressive campaign has been started to recruit healthcare professionals from other parts of the country by offering higher wages and incentives such as bonuses to attract enthusiastic professionals to the area. City leaders project that it will jumpstart the migration of new health care workers to the area. Must See, Must Do Because El Paso is centrally located, inexpensive day trips are a great way to escape the city and venture out to nearby scenic adventures.
