Where Compassion Meets Access: Documentary Explores Tepeyac’s Role in Equitable Healthcare

Tepeyac is honored to be featured in THINK+change’s newest mini-documentary, Raising the Bar for Disability Medical Care, a powerful mini-documentary exploring what true accessibility in healthcare really looks like.

Through the lived experiences of patients like Chris Layne, who saw her access to care shift dramatically after becoming a wheelchair user, and Dawn Russell, with a lifetime of experience with a developmental disability, who finally experienced equitable care at Tepeyac, we see the consequences of inaccessibility and the impact of doing better.

This storytelling documentary shows a reimagining of what is possible for healthcare facilities and how they can truly become the “gold standard” of accessibility.
