What else?
The Bay Area is home to dozens of hospitals and clinics with many of them offering new services and programs as of late.
Houston Methodist Clear Lake Hospital recently partnered with Axiom Space to provide crews with training, and pre- and post-mission care, among other things, officials with the hospital said.
Meanwhile, the University of Texas Medical Branch has expanded its Care Closet to its League City and Clear Lake campuses, according to a June 12 news release from the university. The program provides clothing and hygiene products to patients and their family members.

Another program, while not medical-related, is HCA Houston Healthcare Clear Lake’s Raising a Reader program, which looks to improve literacy early on in children’s lives. The program between the hospital system and the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation was announced in November, according to a news release from the hospital’s website.
