We’re incredibly grateful to Tinzen Pradhan and the BLESS Foundation for their generous donation to the Covenant Children's Pediatric Outpatient Rehab Clinic. Their gift of mobility and therapy equipment, including a standing frame, leg braces, weighted blankets, and sensory-friendly items, is already making a difference for our patients with complex medical needs.

Eight-year-old Swayzie, who has been a patient at the clinic for over five years and was born with agenesis of the corpus callosum, received the standing frame and leg braces to support her ongoing rehabilitation and enhance her mobility. Receiving this equipment marks a major milestone in Swayzie’s treatment journey, opening new possibilities for her independence and progress.

Tinzen, a senior at Lubbock High School, founded the BLESS Foundation to support children with neurological conditions—and that mission continues to shine. Thanks to this support, Swayzie and many others are one step closer to greater independence. 💙

We’re proud to announce Covenant Medical Center is now offering Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), an advanced surgical treatment for patients with Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, and other movement disorders.

Led by Neurologist Dr. Katie Hendley and Neurosurgeon Dr. Robert Scranton, our DBS program is designed to help patients regain independence, reduce symptoms, and improve overall quality of life.

Deep brain stimulation is a surgical procedure that involves implanting wires, or electrodes, in the brain and using safe and mild electrical impulses to stimulate them. This stimulation eases irregular body movements that can interfere with how a patient moves naturally and what they do in everyday life.

Clyde, our first DBS patient, has been living with Parkinson’s since 2021. Since receiving DBS treatment, Clyde has experienced significant improvement in his tremors. “I’m excited to see what all I can accomplish and would do it again in a heartbeat,” he shared.

As the only hospital in West Texas and eastern New Mexico offering this treatment, this milestone reflects our commitment to expanding access to innovative care that enhances quality of life for patients across our region.

"I recently met a patient during his hospitalization who wanted to share his story with me.
He told me several years ago he was a patient at Covenant Medical Center for four months while he battled COVID. He said 'Covenant saved my life' and proceeded to tell me about the specific people who made his experience 'less lonely and frightening' during his extended stay with us. He remembered his transporter, Diana, and his nurse, Mary.
During this current stay, Diana Torrez checked him into the unit. He said he felt an 'instant comfort and gratitude' that he would finally be able to personally thank her for the care she provided all those years ago. He brought Diana to tears by realizing the impact she had on him. He told her, 'Thank you, I will never forget you!' He raved about how Diana spoke Spanish to him, and how she was compassionate and sincere as she cared for him each time he traveled to Endoscopy.
Diana is a very hard-working person, and I am proud she is part of my team! She is not only our one and only CNA, she is our transporter and assists in the many other roles in the department. She truly is an angel and deserves to be recognized every day! The fact that this gentleman remembers her YEARS later speaks volumes of who she is!" -Velinda Betancur, Covenant Medical Center Endoscopy Supervisor

Diana's compassion, sincerity, and ability to bring comfort to others truly exemplify the spirit of healing we strive for every day. We’re incredibly grateful to have her on our team, making a lasting impact on every patient she encounters.

Yesterday, 10-year-old Alex rang the ball after two and a half years of fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Diagnosed in 2023, Alex fought bravely every step of the way. Long treatment days were made a little easier with Minecraft and the friends he met in the pediatric oncology clinic. Now, he's officially cancer free and celebrated this incredible milestone surrounded by friends and family at his bell ringing ceremony! 🔔 💚
