Wayne had spent more than 25 years serving the Forrest Health family. When stubborn wounds on his legs would not heal, he knew exactly where to go.

After 18 months of specialized care, including advanced skin substitute treatment, his wounds finally closed. What stood out most was not just the treatment, but the people behind it.

Read why he says he was treated like family every step of the way. https://hubs.ly/Q04dVkYn0

What if you could start your nursing career before you even graduated?

At Forrest Health, that's not a hypothetical, it's happening right now. 142 nursing students across the Pine Belt are gaining real patient care experience, building confidence, and in many cases, walking across the graduation stage with a job already waiting for them.

This is how Forrest Health is building the next generation of nurses.

Before it was Highland Community Hospital, it was Crosby Memorial, a hospital that served generations of Picayune families for decades. When Forrest Health stepped in on May 1, 2006, it wasn't just a change of ownership. It was a promise to keep quality healthcare close to home for Pearl River County.

Twenty years later, that promise is still being kept.

This week, we are celebrating two decades of growth, community, and care, and we want you to be part of it. Join us Thursday, April 30 at 2:30 PM at Highland Community Hospital to celebrate this milestone together.
