Yesterday, SEMRHI held a dedication ceremony to rename our administrative services building in honor of our former CEO, Dr. Geroldean Dyse, and her 41 years of service and dedication to SEMRHI. From LPN/Health Educator to Chief Executive Officer, she touched many lives. Her tenure as CEO resulted in the establishment of several clinics, offices, and programs to improve the accessibility of medical services in the areas served by SEMRHI. Dr. Dyse was not only our CEO, but she was also our family and friend, and she will always hold a special place in our hearts.

SEMRHI celebrates National Women's Health Week! From May 13 to May 17, SEMRHI clinics in Beaumont, Brooklyn, Lumberton, New Augusta, Picayune, Seminary, and Sumrall will offer FREE health screenings. Women who receive screenings will also receive a complimentary gift bag, while supplies last. For more details, call (601) 658-0058.

In addition to giving back to the community, SEMRHI also believes in giving back to its employees. Our employees are our most valuable asset, and we always strive to show appreciation for them. Saturday evening, we hosted our Annual Employee Appreciation Day at the Hattiesburg Zoo. The event was a great success as our Board of Directors, employees, and guests enjoyed the evening with food, fun, celebration, and appreciation. We are so appreciative of our amazing, hardworking employees; and thank you for the services you provide to our community! #SEMRHI #EmployeeAppreciationDay

SEMRHI had a great day participating in the 5K walk at the Hattiesburg Half Marathon. A group of more than 115 walkers came out to support SEMRHI and its MAGnet-HCCN Health and Wellness Program. SEMRHI is proud of its dedicated staff, and employees from the Lamar County School District and Petal School District, who walked to promote health and wellness in Mississippi. Thanks to our partners, Champions Way Training; L.A.W. Fitness; and The Family Y Hattiesburg – SEMRHI could not implement its MAGnet-HCCN Health and Wellness Program without your support! #SEMRHI #MAGnet #runhburg #ChampionsWayTraining #lawfitness #familyymca
