"At Memorial Satilla Health, our culture is based on high quality and compassionate care focused on serving patients in our community," said Bobby McCullough, CEO of Memorial Satilla Health.

That is the mission statement that guides us and we believe it is our responsibility to give back to our local communities."
Memorial Satilla Health, through its Community Benefit Fund, has committed to contribute $1.95 million to the area community over the next 10 years to meet community needs, including education, improvement of community health, business and economic development, and community enrichment. Community representatives on the hospital's board of trustees oversee the expenditure of these funds.
