Contributing to our community We take great pride in being your hospital of choice and a vital member of the communities in southeast Kansas. Rural hospitals like NMRMC bring quality health services and contribute to their local economies by purchasing supplies and services and creating good-paying jobs. Neosho Memorial is proud to employ close to 500 outstanding and skilled professionals. Neosho Memorial is a great place to start or further a career. In fact, our hospital was recently named one of Modern Healthcare magazine’s Best Places to Work in Healthcare for the 15th consecutive year. Here’s something else to consider about the value of local hospitals. When people consider relocating or even retiring, they often consider the quality and availability of health care—and wisely so. High-quality health care services also may allow community members to grow in place, whether a young couple planning a new family or a senior couple considering how to age in place rather than uproot their lives and relocate closer to a hospital. I hope you enjoy this issue of Best Health. You can read about some of our talented new providers and exciting new services. Thank you for your continued support and for trusting us with your care. We look forward to serving you for many years to come. Sincerely, Dennis E. Franks, CEO Orthopedic specialists will see you in a brand-new space If bone or joint pain has been limiting the way you live your life, the orthopedic care team at NMRMC Orthopedic Clinic would like to help you resume your favorite activities.
