As a healthcare organization, we are committed to the health and safety of our employees and patients. We believe that we have a responsibility to take a leadership role on this major health issue, and allowing people to use tobacco products defeats this purpose. Effective January 1, 2008, Natchez Regional Medical Center prohibits anyone from using any tobacco products (smoking or smokeless) anywhere on the property of the medical facility, including sidewalks, walkways, driveways and parking lots under the hospital's ownership or control. Thank you for your cooperation with Natchez Regional Medical Center's Tobacco-Free policy and for helping maintain a healthier environment for everyone.
