Preventive Medical and Mental Health Care
A primary goal of IHWSH is to ensure access to preventive healthcare for our volunteers as well as the larger restaurant community. This includes:
Comprehensive, gender-appropriate annual check-up, including any needed lab work, tests, routine vaccines and contraception.
For individuals over 35, annual mammogram at The Rose for the early detection of breast cancer.
For depression, anxiety and other mental health concerns, one-on-one counseling services with providers such as Ethos Wellness .
For long-acting contraception, IHWSH is partnering with Texas Children’s Hospital, Women’s Health Surgeons, Comprehensive Women’s Healthcare and other MD volunteers to offer IUDs, hormonal implants, vasectomy.
For individuals facing infertility, counseling with a specialist is available.
For pregnant people in need of prenatal care and assistance with enrollment with Medicaid, we can expedite this process. Doula services, both labor and post-partum, may be available.
For pregnant people in need of information about abortion, we can help in accordance with applicable law.
If you’re facing a medical problem, and would like to talk to a peer who has dealt with a similar situation - such as miscarriage, infertility, depression, substance abuse, need for abortion, breast cancer, caregiving, grieving and loss - we’ve got your back.
Please complete and submit the form. Your information will ONLY be shared with our health care partners and NEVER EVER with anyone else.
