TUPELO (AP) — Three northern Mississippi hospitals are tackling major construction projects.
OCH Regional Medical Center in Starkville has construction under way, North Mississippi Medical Center-Tupelo is preparing to break ground and Baptist Memorial Hospital-North Mississippi is getting serious about plans for a new hospital in Oxford.
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reported Saturday that the expansion-renovation projects in Starkville and Tupelo are needed to replace decades-old patient rooms. In Oxford, the proposals for a new hospital are driven by its current landlocked campus with little room for future growth.
