HADH, a 24-bed critical access hospital, said the partnership will benefit patients who require immediate attention, since the 187-bed Mercy Hospital Washington is the only Level III trauma center between St. Louis and Jefferson City.
Other aspects of Mercy’s and HADH’s partnership include consulting services, staff training and access to telemedicine.
