We are saddened and shocked by the recent events that are occurring in our country. We stand in solidarity with all those who believe in true justice and equality.

Since we first opened our doors, First State Compassion has always embraced complete inclusivity and equality. We have built a workplace for all people to grow and thrive together. I am especially proud of the strong patient community we’ve created over the years. We thank our employees and patients for engaging with us in ongoing dialog about how best to serve, and heal, all those who come through our doors. 

We believe in the possibilities of peaceful and positive change and will continue to treat every person that comes through our doors with care, respect, and human dignity. That is where it starts.
