Dexter, MO -  Southeast Health Center of Stoddard County, in collaboration with the Stoddard County Ambulance District, Stoddard County Health Center and other members of the Homeland Security Response Team, will be erecting a portion of the Region E mobile hospital in front of the facility. The tent structures will allow the staff to triage patients before they enter the hospital who might have symptoms associated with COVID-19. Those individuals will be routed into a separate area to avoid potential exposure to other patients.

We continue to monitor and respond to the COVID-19 situation in our community.  The construction of these tents should not be alarming or cause concern. It should help reassure you that our highest priority is patient, staff and community safety. Also be reassured that during this challenging time we will continue to provide patients with the quality care they expect and deserve.
