Our Journey: A Legacy of Care

Yesterday

Founded in 1952, Forrest Health began as a small 90-bed county hospital, dedicated to providing quality healthcare to South Mississippi. Over the past 70+ years, we’ve remained a trusted leader in medical excellence, caring for generations of families in our community.

Today

What began as a single hospital has evolved into a multi-hospital health system featuring cutting-edge facilities, including a Level II Regional Trauma Center. We are proud to be the hub for advanced, compassionate care in South Mississippi, offering services that meet the health needs of our diverse community.

And Beyond

As South Mississippi continues to grow, so do we. We're committed to adapting to the needs of our patients. We look forward to a future marked by progress, innovation, and care that continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve.
