They are currently planning to allow Texas-based Christus Health Networks to take over our regional hospital, to be run under their Catholic code of ethics. This will remove services to an already under-served population in Otero County, NM. 

Our county commissioners refuse to ask the New Mexico Attorney General to have oversight, and believe the claims Christus will not remove services.

If you have had Christus take over a hospital in your area, and we're then denied services for reproductive care, gender-affirming care, or anything else, please use this form to email as kindly as possible about your experience to our county attorney. 

Thank you.
