🔔 Attention, Centralia! I repeat—this is only a drill!

At SSM Health, the safety of our patients, staff, and community is always our top priority. Today, our St. Mary's Hospital crew participated in a special emergency preparedness exercise designed to strengthen our response to real-world situations.

This drill helps us learn, improve, and ensure we’re ready for anything—so we can keep you safe, no matter what. If you saw activity at our health ministry today, such as staff in protective gear or special zones set up, please know it’s part of a planned exercise and not a real emergency.

We appreciate your support and understanding as we work together to build a safer future for everyone in our region.

Thank you for trusting SSM Health!

🕰️ We’ve officially fallen back!
Daylight Saving Time has ended, and while the clocks may say we gained an hour, our sleep schedules might still be catching up.
If you're feeling a little off today, you're not alone. Even small shifts in time can throw off our rhythm. Be kind to yourself as your body adjusts—and maybe enjoy a little extra rest if you can. 😴
