Congratulations to Michelle Roberts, RN!

Michelle has been with Forrest Health for 13 years and currently serves as a Maternal Child Educator. From her time on 2T and 4FB to supporting lactation and education across Women’s and Children’s units, Michelle is known for being a constant source of support behind the scenes.

Her nominator praised her for keeping teams prepared, spirits high, and education meaningful while always stepping in to help when needed. Michelle’s impact is felt across our units, and this recognition is well deserved.

If you're heading out to prom, take a minute to think about how you're getting there and how you're getting home.

Buckle up, put the phone down, follow the speed limit, and never drive under the influence. A safe ride means everyone gets to enjoy the night and make it home safely.

From all of us at Forrest Health Trauma Services, have fun, celebrate responsibly, and be safe on the roads. 🚗

At Forrest Health, our Ambassadors proudly wear green while helping visitors find their way, delivering flowers and mail, and bringing a friendly face to patients and families every day.

When care is just down the hall, everything changes. 🏥

At Pearl River County Nursing Home, residents have something many facilities can’t offer: immediate access to emergency care, lab work, imaging, providers and more, all under one roof with Pearl River County Hospital. It means faster answers, fewer transfers and care that stays close to home.

See how this unique partnership keeps care coordinated for residents and peace of mind for families.https://hubs.ly/Q046ZDX70

Sometimes the greatest comfort comes from someone simply being there!

David Williams, ICU Hostess, was honored with a We CARE Award for the kindness and calm he brings to families during some of their most difficult moments. David has greeted patients and loved ones with patience, warmth, and understanding, offering tissues, holding doors, and sharing a reassuring smile when words fall short.

As David prepares to move to the Information Desk next month, his compassion will continue to touch even more lives across Forrest General Hospital.

Five years ago, David felt like he was out of options. Chronic wounds from lymphedema, constant pain and limited mobility had taken over his life.

Today, he is back at work, active with his family and 290 pounds lighter. He credits the team at Forrest Health’s Wound Care Center for treating more than his wounds and helping him find hope again.

Read his full story and see what is possible with the right care.

When it came to his health, David Verespie was literally at the end of his rope. He didn’t know where to turn. He was at a loss and had little to no hope. That was five years ago.
