What We Do Best
Caring Health Center (CHC) is one of the premier health centers in Western Massachusetts, and for 25 years it has served as an essential source of health care for residents of Springfield and surrounding areas. Our mission is to eliminate health disparities and achieve health equity through providing accessible, value-driven healthcare for diverse, multi-ethnic communities in Western Massachusetts.
RESEARCH
Caring Health Center (CHC) has collaborated on federally-funded research projects for over two decades. Since 2007, CHC has sustained an on-site, staffed research department and has completed two National Institute of Health-R01 studies. Based on its history, CHC’s research department and collaborators have expertise in mixed method, interdisciplinary and practice-based approaches to community-responsive research.
Chief Research & Population Health Officer, Dr. Cristina Huebner Torres, emphasized that, “key aims of the RPH department’s work are to address individual and systems-level factors to reduce health disparities and to ensure the delivery of culturally and linguistically appropriate services.”
Wellness Center
CHC’s Wellness Center offers group-based physical activity classes, nutrition education, cooking demonstrations, chronic disease prevention and management education, stress-reduction classes, shared medical appointments (SMA), worksite wellness programming, and other classes.
Wellness Center programming aims to support our patients’ capacity to follow primary care treatment plans and recommendations for increased physical activity, dietary improvements, and self-care practices.
Due to COVID-19, all in-person classes have been canceled. To help you and your family stay healthy, our Wellness Center will be offering online virtual classes.
Community Impact
According to the American Hospital Association (AHA), losses to America’s hospitals and health systems averaged about $50.7 billion per month in 2020. This was due in part to increased costs of PPE, financial support given to workers, and cancelled or forgone patient services caused by COVID-19.
At Caring Health Center, the situation mirrored the financial effects felt all over the nation. Simply put, many patients chose to forego provider visits, health screenings, testing and even in some cases essential medical visits for fear of contracting COVID-19 in a healthcare setting.
Dr. Jonathan Moseley, CHC Chief Medical Officer states “Our increasing fear as providers is that delay of care is as serious or, in some cases, more dangerous than the risks of COVID-19.”
Who We Are
Caring Health Center is a Federally Qualified Health Center providing comprehensive, primary healthcare to individuals and families living in the Pioneer Valley. We look forward to becoming your provider of choice.
