On February 29, 2024, counsel for Nacogdoches County Hospital District (the District) agreed with other stakeholders’ counsel in the Lion Star bankruptcy case to the terms of a Court Order to return Nacogdoches Memorial Hospital to the District. After a short 15-day transition period, the District will take full control of all Hospital operations and patient care. Due to the severity of the situation, the District, as promised, used all available resources to return the hospital to the citizens of Nacogdoches County. The District intends to continue full operations, including the Clinics in Nacogdoches & Garrison. We appreciate the patience and understanding of the medical staff, physicians, and the community during the difficult bankruptcy proceedings. We look forward to reestablishing relationships with the Hospital’s medical staff, physicians, and vendors as we work together to provide quality health care and services. A hearing is scheduled on Monday, March 4, 2024 to enter the Court Order in federal court in Fort Worth, Texas.
