Legacy Community Health - Southwest

💙✨ Caring for our community doesn’t just happen in the clinic, it happens everywhere.

Over the past few weeks, Legacy Community Health’s pharmacy teams have been out in the community, connecting with families, sharing resources, and helping people better understand their health.

From the Zeta Phi Beta Resource Fair to events at Hicks Elementary and Day in the Park in Beaumont, our teams:

🩺 Provided blood pressure and blood glucose checks

💬 Answered questions and shared helpful health information

🛍️ Gave out everyday tools like pill boxes and medication disposal bags

These moments may seem small, but they matter. A quick screening can raise awareness, and a simple conversation can help someone take the next step toward better health.

💙 This is what Health Beyond Care looks like, showing up, listening, and supporting our communities wherever we can.

Who knew pickleball could be so powerful?

Our community came to play – and they didn’t disappoint. The inaugural Legacy Open brought the competition and team spirit together to rai over $50,000 for our behavioral health programs.

That means more access to mental health support, more care for our families, and people connected to the help they need.

💙 Thank you to title sponsor H-E-B and everyone who played, cheered, and showed up. You helped make a difference and had a great time doing it.

🧠💙 When your child is struggling, getting support shouldn’t feel complicated.

Kids and teens can experience anxiety, stress, or changes in behavior that aren’t always easy to recognize at first. Left unaddressed, these challenges can affect their confidence, relationships, and day to day life—but early support can make a meaningful difference.

Here are a few ways families can support their child’s mental health:

💬 Create space to talk — Even quick, low pressure check ins can help kids feel heard

👀 Watch for changes — Sleep, mood, focus, or energy shifts that last over time

🎯 Keep routines simple and consistent — Structure can help kids feel more secure

🌿 Encourage movement and downtime — Both help regulate stress and emotions

📞 Reach out early — You don’t have to wait for things to get worse to ask for help

For many families, one of the biggest challenges is actually accessing support. Between school, work, transportation, and busy schedules, it can be hard to fit in appointments.

That’s where pediatric telehealth can help:
📱 Connect with licensed providers from home

⏱️ Fit visits into your family’s schedule (after school, evenings, etc.)

🚗 No travel needed, reducing stress on both kids and parents

💬 A more comfortable setting for children to open up

Sometimes the right support is simply making care easier to reach.

💙 Small steps, early conversations, and accessible care can have a lasting impact.
