About us
Siloam Health is a faith-based, charitably funded nonprofit organization that provides affordable, high-quality, whole-person health care to the uninsured and underserved in Middle Tennessee as well as health promotion among Nashville’s immigrant and refugee populations. Through Siloam’s comprehensive medical care and community health programs, we address not only the physical health of those we serve, but their spiritual, emotional, and mental health as well. We also work through student education initiatives to mentor and train the next generation of health professionals and change the face of health care as usual.

Beverly Crowder's passion for missions and refugees find a unique space to overlap as a volunteer nurse with our Refugee Medical Screening clinic. She shares, "It is a joy to welcome refugees... I feel like any way we can welcome refugees and for them to see how happy we are to welcome and assist in any way makes this difficult process more comfortable for them."

We are proud of Siloam Health's Chief Community Health Officer, Amy Richardson, for representing Siloam as industry leaders from across the nation met to discuss the power of community health worker programs!
I've been excited about the power and potential of community health workers to both vastly improve public health and provide an extraordinary workforce opportunity ever since I heard Raj Panjabi give a moving TED Talk on community health workers in 2017. Community health workers are trained individuals who may not have the credentials of nurses or doctors, but who have the trust of their community. We have only 60,000 community health workers in the U.S. Imagine the impact if we had 1 million. To that end, with our friends at IMPaCT Care, we hosted a convening at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York of thought leaders -- community health workers, Medicaid and Medicare leaders and private sector experts -- to drive the change that is necessary to scale up effective community health worker programs. To me, private capital is critical, and private capital will invest in this space as more and more evidence becomes available of the savings that can accrue to communities, health centers, insurers and businesses with the presence of community health workers. Stay tuned. Big thanks to David Erickson, Tony Davis, Dyvonne Body, MPP, Talor C., Edison Reyes, Kellye Jackson, Dawn Alley, Shreya Kangovi, Annie Cloke, Wendy McWeeny, Margarita Hart, Raj Panjabi, Kate McEvoy, Emily Carrier, Ashlee Harris, Honey Yang Estrada, MPH, CHW, Karen Hacker, Janée T., Dave A.
