                            HON. SAM GRAVES

                              of Missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 25, 2020

  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Scotland County Hospital. Scotland County Hospital is an important 
Critical Access Hospital in my district that is celebrating their 50th 
anniversary and I stand today to celebrate with them and recognize 
their unwavering commitment to keeping rural Missourians healthy.
  Established in 1970, Scotland County Hospital has met the healthcare 
needs of thousands of individuals over the past five decades. The only 
hospital in a five-county region, Scotland County Hospital has gone 
above and beyond in serving the area, continuing to expand their 
services to provide accessible healthcare. Located in Memphis, 
Missouri, Scotland County Hospital has continued to grow, transforming 
into a state-of-the-art facility with nearly 200 employees. In addition 
to their main facility, Scotland County Hospital has also opened 
several rural health clinics in surrounding counties. I firmly believe 
that Scotland County Hospital goes above and beyond in successfully 
fulfilling their mission ``to improve the healthcare of our communities 
with services close to home''.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing Scotland 
County Hospital for their tremendous service to the City of Memphis and 
Northeast Missouri over the past 50 years. I am honored to represent 
Scotland County Hospital in the United States Congress.
