 To Our Patients and Friends
Hancock Medical Center’s Board of Trustees, employees, physicians and volunteers join us in our resolve to provide the community with top notch medical care. Hurricane Katrina may have taken a toll on our hospital, but it strengthened our resolve to continue to provide the excellent level of care you have come to rely on.
Restoration professionals are replacing walls and flooring damaged by flooding on the first floor of the hospital. Our staff is working tirelessly to open the emergency department with new equipment and furnishings in early October. Other nursing units will follow shortly thereafter.
We are in constant contact with your local physicians. Several are currently seeing patients and others plan to open temporary offices in the near future. Our rural health clinics in Kiln (in the Dollar General parking lot) and Pearlington (near the entrance to Port Bienville) are open at this time in temporary facilities.
HMC proudly commends the dedication and courage of our employees who continue to work despite tremendous personal losses. It is this spirit that defines our organization, and it is these caregivers and staff members who go above and beyond each day to provide you with the best in health services.
