Mercy Children's Clinic

Mercy Children's Clinic is a non-profit, pediatric healthcare ministry based in Franklin, TN.

MISSION STATEMENT: “To Reflect the Love and Compassion of Jesus Christ by Providing Healthcare Services to ALL children and support to their families.”childhoodlegs

Compelled by the grace of God and the biblical mandate to serve our neighbors in “word and deed”, Mercy Health Services is distinct as a pediatric health clinic. MHS was opened in 1999 through the efforts of many in the faith community of Franklin.

Today, Mercy has a staff of more than forty full and part –time staff. Each of our physicians is Board Certified in Pediatric Medicine. Our patients come from more than twenty five counties in Tennessee. Why do they come from so far? In the
for-profit medical communities, it is unprofitable to care for the underserved and uninsured. Consequently, 70% of Mercy’s patients are uninsured or on TennCare (Medicaid).

Currently:

•  9,400 children call Mercy their healthcare home

•  There were more than 14,000 patient visits last year

•   Upwards of 50% of our children are struggling with chronic (constant) diseases like asthma,, diabetes, and heart disease

•   Missionaries at heart, our physicians are compensated well below those in the for-profit arena

• MHS must raise approximately $1 million annually Mercy Children’s Clinic is known for its accessible, compassionate, holistic care as we desire to serve our neighbors in body, mind, and spirit. No one is turned away because of their inability to pay. MCC removes many barriers by working constantly to provide more bilingual services to the Hispanic community.

Complimenting primary healthcare, MHS provides comprehensive social services to our clients. Mercy Family Services, begun in 2006, currently has two full-time counselors and a part time Psychiatrist providing mental health care for our patients and their families. Additionally, our staff works in collaboration with other agencies in our area to provide food, clothing, and shelter.

One of our patient-parents recently commented,
“. . . you represent Jesus to me and my family. When my family and I come to Mercy, I know we will be cared for like nowhere else. I don’t know where I would go if you weren’t here.”
