Below is a message from our Hospital Administrator Sydney Sawyer from Lackey Memorial Hospital in Forest:
Everyone please stay vigilant. As most of you know , I am an RN and the CEO of a small rural hospital, I have dealt with infection control for 25 years or so.
I have no reason other than concern for encouraging you to wear your mask.
We are now not able to transfer patients to the normal tertiary facilities that we always use.
Their ICUs are full and this is July! Wait until flu hits. We are in Forest Mississippi and we are having to transfer the seriously ill to places as far away as Tupelo.
I didn't negate any of that.
