Where rural Texas
healthcare leads.
Hosted by the Texas Organization of Rural & Community Hospitals (TORCH), the TORCH/TARHC Fall Conference & Tradeshow is the state’s premier annual gathering for the leaders who keep rural and community hospitals running. Held at the Kalahari Resort & Convention Center in Round Rock, the multi-day event brings together hospital executives, administrators, clinicians, and healthcare partners for education sessions, a sold-out tradeshow, networking, and the connections that keep Texas rural healthcare strong.

The Power of Small Moments
How everyday moments shape culture, engagement, and retention.
Culture isn’t built in the big, once-a-year moments — it’s built in the small ones that happen every day. Chris showed leaders how the brief, ordinary interactions they often overlook are the ones that shape trust, engagement, and whether their best people stay.
Drawing on his experience leading high-growth healthcare organizations, he gave attendees practical, ready-to-use ways to turn everyday moments into momentum that drives retention and results — a message built for the leaders keeping rural and community hospitals thriving.
