Memorial Health Meadows Hospital celebrating 60th Birthday

VIDALIA, Ga. (WTOC) - Memorial Health Meadows Hospital in Vidalia celebrating it’s 60th Birthday Tuesday.

Leaders at the hospital says this special day wouldn’t have been possible without those who pushed for the facility to open all those years ago.

They say without that, the community in Vidalia wouldn’t have been able to thrive in the ways they are now.

“I’ve seen a lot of growth, a lot of changes. And of course, since HCA took over several years ago, a lot of money has been put in our organization and a lot of new technology. A lot of new physicians have come on board. We’ve has some wonderful doctors through the years, wonderful providers, and its even gotten better. It’s been home to me and it’s like coming home every morning when I come to work,” said Joette Gay.

Gay says she feels blessed to have been a part of all the growth Memorial Health Meadows Hospital has seen and can’t wait to see what the future has in store for this facility.
