City of Lancaster Community Information
City of Lancaster Community Information HISTORICAL OVERVIEW The first settlement made in the Lancaster community was in September 1844 by Roderick Rawlins. Mr. Rawlins and other members of his party had secured "headrights" from the Republic of Texas. A few years later, M. M. Miller, Sr., a son-in-law of Roderick Rawlins, established a trading post settlement about one mile north of Lancaster at Pleasant Run. It became a main trading center for south Dallas County. In 1847, Mr. A Bledsoe arrived in the community and later purchased a tract of land where the present town of Lancaster is located. In the spring of 1852 Bledsoe laid out and surveyed the townsite of Lancaster, Texas. The site was plotted and planned after Lancaster, Kentucky, where Mr. A Bledsoe was born in 1801. Lancaster was first incorporated in 1853. This was the beginning of the present town of Lancaster which eventually absorbed Pleasant Run and other nearby settlements. A later incorporation was voted in 1882, to meet with changes in State laws. LOCATION Located in the Southwest portion of Dallas County, the City of Lancaster is approximately 15 minutes south of Dallas and is well situated to access the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex, one of the largest and most diverse in the nation. Lancaster has excellent freeway access, with Interstates 20, 35 and 45 adjacent to or in the community. The City’s 33 square miles is bordered by IH-35E to the west, Ellis County to the South, Dallas (Interstate IH20) to the north and Hutchins (Interstate IH45) to the east.

1 Letter from the President Guided by the founding principles of life, learning, and compassion, Dallas-based Methodist Health System provides quality, integrated health care to improve and save the lives of the individuals and families it serves. Next year, Methodist will celebrate its 90th year of delivering quality, compassionate health care to families and communities in North Texas. In 1927, Dallas Methodist Hospital (now Methodist Dallas Medical Center) opened its doors with 100 beds. Today, Methodist has seven acute care hospitals; 40 clinics and OP Centers; 7,800 employees; 1,700 physicians; and almost 2,000 volunteers extending our reach across the DFW Metroplex. Although Methodist has had many changes over the decades, our mission has remained the same – commitment to the health and well-being of the communities served. Every day, our team of physicians, nurses, staff and volunteers touch the lives of patients and families across North Texas. Methodist is proud to serve the community through 60 plus access points, including family health centers, physician offices, urgent care centers, imaging centers, a rehabilitation hospital and a campus for continuing care. In 2015, we provided more than 58,000 inpatient admissions and $109 million in unreimbursed charity care for the poor. While we are extremely proud of our work so far, Methodist Health System is committed to doing more. In order for us to provide the best patient-centered care, we need to be aligned with the unique health needs of the communities we serve. Methodist completed a comprehensive health needs assessment of our service areas utilizing data analysis from more than 80 health indicators and conducting multiple interviews throughout our service area.

Annual Review 2018 North Texas Community Health Collaborative
ANNUAL REVIEW 2018 NORTH TEXAS COMMUNITY HEALTH COLLABORATIVE Dr. Sushma Sharma Director, Community, Public and Population Health [email protected] www.DFWHCFoundation.org www.HealthyNTexas.org 2 PRESIDENT’S COLUMN The Dallas-Fort Worth Hospital Council Foundation’s Community Health Collaborative (CHC) began as a series of meetings between regional health organizations focused on discussing the most urgent needs of our patients. Our purpose was to gain an understanding of our hospitals’ approaches to community health. Population health was becoming a major focus in North Texas, with a need to invest in prevention services to serve as a key component for value-based purchasing and alternative payment models. Today, we have achieved numerous successes in information sharing, collaboration and shared programming. Kristin Jenkins JD, MBA, FACHE Determining the overall health of our community’s residents through health President, DFWHC Foundation metrics at a zip code and even a block-by-block level are monitored by the Senior Vice President, DFWHC CHC and shared to prioritize resources. These findings are also shared with community leaders via the web and special publications. Our data, which has rendered the region transparent, has been used to support expansion of diabetes prevention services, food dessert initiatives, mental health and substance misuse services, among many others. And this year, the CHC has received its first regional grant funding for projects related to mental health first aid training. Through the cooperation our CHC members, we have received funding to train 5,000 community members in Mental Health First Aid. This will give participants the ability to recognize signs of mental stress and how to intervene and provide information to get people the care they need.
