JBSA-Lackland

Welcome to the JBSA-Lackland Fisher Houses

Located on Joint Base San Antonio–Lackland in San Antonio, Texas, the JBSA-Lackland Fisher Houses offer a compassionate and supportive, home-like environment for the families of military service members receiving medical care. These homes serve as a vital resource during times of need, providing a place of comfort and connection just moments away from medical facilities.

Established in 1991, 1992, and 2000, the three Fisher Houses at JBSA-Lackland can accommodate up to 26 families at a time. Each family is provided with a private guest suite featuring an en-suite bathroom, with accommodations for up to four individuals per suite.

Guests have access to a variety of shared amenities, including:

  • fully equipped kitchen for preparing home-cooked meals
  • dining room and spacious family room with a large flat-screen television
  • Laundry facilities available on-site for added convenience

In addition, House III was specially designed with our youngest guests in mind, featuring:

  • A cheerful children’s playroom stocked with toys
  • A dedicated teen room offering games and a relaxed space to unwind

These thoughtful additions provide a sense of normalcy and comfort for families with children navigating difficult medical journeys.

House Requirement

Care givers and families of patients from all branches of the military receiving active treatment at Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center. The guests must live outside a 50-mile radius of Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center. Those within a 50-mile radius may be considered on a case-by-case basis if situation requires the need and occupancy allows. Availability of rooms is provided on a space available basis. Those in an outpatient status are also eligible, and you may request to have one non-medical attendee (over the age of 18) accompany you during your stay. Priority is given to families of Overseas Contingency Operations, families of critically ill patients and Oncology. Patients and guests must be able to care for themselves as the staff does not provide any medical care, assistance, or transportation.
