AVENUE 360 HEALTH & WELLNESS

For over 30 years, Houston Area Community Services and Bering Omega have worked to bring health services to an underserved population of Houston. In November of 2016, Houston Area Community Services and Bering Omega merged to join forces as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) under the new name Avenue 360 Health & Wellness. The new name is a representation of a literal avenue—a path one takes to get to their destination. It is a point of access. Together, they guide their patients so t... hey are able to reach better health outcomes and attain a better life. But individual paths are not linear and they provide a full range of services to promote a 360-degree approach to healthcare. No matter what path their patients are on, Avenue 360 is there to support them and give them the care they need. Avenue 360 Health & Wellness offers a holistic solution for those seeking a medical home. The patient is the center of their model, giving their patients a collaborative choice for their healthcare needs. They care for the whole person, meaning that whether someone needs a diagnosis, a prescription for flu medicine, a stable place to live or a partner in wellness Avenue 360 Health & Wellness is there. Their whole community approach means that everyone is served, from families needing a primary care doctor to those who want to spend their last days in dignity. They represent that “They’re all in this together,” spirit. They care for the whole person, the whole community and the whole city—they’ve done this for decades and will continue to do so for decades more.More
