WE ARE PLEASED TO SHARE THE SPRING /SUMMER 2026 EDITION OF COVINGTONCARES, A PUBLICATION OF COVINGTON COUNTY HOSPITAL. In this issue, we highlight several important milestones for our organization, including the successful implementation of Epic and the addition of new providers to our clinics, and we recognize the dedication of team members who work tirelessly behind the scenes to support the care we deliver each day. One of the most significant accomplishments for our hospital this year has been the adoption of Epic, a comprehensive electronic health record system designed to enhance the coordination and delivery of care. This transition represents a major step forward in improving communication among care teams, strengthening patient safety, and ensuring that the information needed to care for our patients and community is readily available across our organization. While much of this work happens in the background, the impact will be felt daily by every patient who walks through our doors. We are also excited to welcome two outstanding providers to our team. Mary Kathryn Dossett, FNP, has joined the staff at CCH Family Medical Clinic, bringing her devotion to patient-centered care and a passion for serving families in our community. We are also pleased to welcome Dave Johnson, PA-C, to CCH Clinic Magee, where his experience and commitment to quality care will further strengthen the services available to patients in the Magee area. In addition to these advancements, we would like to recognize the tireless efforts of Billie Ward. Billie’s work represents the kind of dedication that often goes unseen but is essential to the patient experience. Many of the processes and systems that ensure our patients receive seamless, high-quality care operate out of public view, and Billie’s expertise exemplifies the professionalism and attention to detail that make those efforts successful. As always, the stories shared in this issue of CovingtonCares reflect the people – providers and staff – who make Covington County Hospital and our clinics trusted sources of care. Their dedication, compassion, and expertise allow us to continue fulfilling our mission of improving the health and wellbeing of the communities we serve. Thank you for choosing Covington County Hospital. It is our privilege and honor to serve your healthcare needs. Gregg Gibbes, CEO LETTER FROM THE CEO CovingtonCares 1
