North Mississippi Medical Center-Eupora was presented with the 2019 Outstanding Mississippi Small Rural Hospital Award last week.
The Mississippi Hospital Association presented the award during a Thursday afternoon celebration at the hospital.
MHA’s Outstanding Mississippi Small Rural Hospital Award annually recognizes a rural hospital in the state with less than 100 beds that has improved access to health care or has launched innovative programs in their communities.
The award takes into account a hospital’s patient satisfaction, quality and safety, and financial performance as well.
NMMC-Eupora’s nomination highlighted the hospital’s telemedicine program, which allows patients to access resources and specialty care close to home.
A congratulatory video was created to recognize all of the staff at the hospital for their hard work.
