In 1958, the United States House of Representatives assumed a pledge commemorating Doctors' Day; and in 1990 the Senate and the Congress permitted legislation establishing National Doctors Day. The pledge designating March 30th as National Doctors' Day was signed by President George H. W. Bush on February 21, 1991. The red carnation is the symbolic flower used for this day.
Although Mayers Memorial Hospital District does not employ physicians directly, we work collaboratively with Mountain Valleys Health Centers (MVHC) to provide the medical care needed for inpatient, skilled nursing, hospice, OB and other services. Physicians are granted privileges to see their patients at MMHD.
Additionally, MMHD contracts with EmCare to provide Emergency Room physicians to provide 24/7 Emergency Care locally.
MMHD would like to thank all of our local and referring physicians for your commitment and dedication to the healthcare of our community.
Happy Doctor's Day!
