Northeast Mississippi Health Care

Stakeholders

For the planning process to be effective, it was critical that it be conducted in the context of the community we serve. We proactively sought input from our community leaders to better understand their perception of Northeast Mississippi Health Care and to build strong support for the plan’s future implementation. Individuals representing board, staff, community stakeholders, non-profits, and public agencies were invited to provide input via an on-line survey. Some of the feedback provided by the group is bulleted here.
