Singing River Health System
Over the past year, we have seen countless individuals from healthcare to essential workers rise to the occasion and meet their true calling while fighting to protect and navigate our community through the COVID-19 pandemic. Words cannot describe how deeply grateful
we are for all their sacrifices, support, and dedication.
At Singing River, every department exemplified unimaginable strength, courage, and commitment. Yet, there are still a few key areas continuing the fight - so the rest of us can put this trying time behind us, and go out into this new world, together.
If not for the unwavering grit of our nurses, medical clinics, laboratory, pharmacy, community relations, and facilities and maintenance teams - returning to our lives and loved ones would not be possible.
Singing River Health System could not be prouder of our remarkable team members who continue to be at the forefront, down in the deepest trenches, alongside one another to carry out our mission of improving health and saving lives - giving everything they have to serve others and protect the place we all call home.
1) 90,000 COVID-19 tests processed in our labs, led by Virginia Moseley.
