New hospital to open in Senatobia, Mississippi
Jul 8, 2021 / 06:32 PM CDT
SENATOBIA, Miss. A new hospital will be opening in Senatobia, Mississippi at the end of July.
It’s been three years since North Oak Regional Medical Center closed in Senatobia, leaving folks in Tate County miles away from an emergency room or acute health care. That’s going to change at the end of this month, when Delta Health System opens Highland Hills hospital.
It’s all hands on deck at Delta Health Highland Hills Hospital as staff gets the facility ready for a July 29 soft opening. Highland Hills sits on the same “footprint” as North Oak Regional Medical Center.
JACKSON ⢠In a ruling that weakens legislative powers, the Mississippi Supreme Court upheld Gov. Tate Reevesâ partial veto of legislation earlier this year providing funds to multiple entities to combat COVID-19.
âThe governor is obviously very pleased that the court interpreted the Constitution the way it was written,â Reevesâ spokesperson Bailey Martin said of the ruling in the lawsuit that pitted the Republican leadership of the House against the Republican governor. âThis will be an impactful decision â protecting taxpayer dollars â for a long, long time.â
Six of the nine justices, with Chief Justice Michael Randolph writing the majority opinion, on Thursday reversed an earlier Supreme Court ruling that gave individual legislators the authority to file lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of partial vetoes. The justices went on to say that Reevesâ partial veto that he issued earlier this year was proper.
