Irwin County Hospital – Official Statement on Water Service Interruption

This week, Irwin County Hospital experienced a brief and limited interruption to a portion of its water service related to billing and administrative matters involving the City of Ocilla.

The situation resulted from a combination of factors, including account balances that were in arrears, the proper application of bill credits across multiple accounts, informal or inconsistent communication regarding payment timing, and recent turnover in administrative staff and vendor-payment processes. In total, the matter involved approximately $20,000 in charges and roughly $1,000 in credits across five separate water accounts.

Once the issue was identified, hospital leadership worked directly and promptly with the City to resolve the matter, and water service was restored.

At no point were patient care, clinical operations, or emergency services impacted. As a licensed healthcare facility, Irwin County Hospital maintains a minimum of 96 hours of emergency water supply as part of its emergency preparedness protocols. In addition, the hospital campus includes a skilled nursing facility that operates on a separate system; there was no interruption of water service to the nursing home, and no residents were affected.

This situation highlights the real and ongoing challenges faced by rural hospitals across Georgia, particularly during periods of transition. Like many rural facilities, Irwin County Hospital has experienced leadership turnover, financial strain, and structural pressures tied to reimbursement models and regulatory complexity.

The Irwin County Hospital Authority recently engaged an Interim Chief Executive Officer specifically to help stabilize operations, strengthen financial and administrative controls, and position the hospital for long-term sustainability. Over the past several weeks, we have been actively working with state and federal agencies, advocacy organizations, banking institutions, and potential affiliation partners to address both immediate operational needs and longer-term structural solutions.

While this was an operational issue, it was identified, corrected, and contained, with safeguards in place that ensured continuity of care. We remain focused on transparency, accountability, and rebuilding confidence—internally, locally, and across the broader healthcare community.

We are encouraged by the progress already underway and remain optimistic about the hospital’s future. Most importantly, Irwin County Hospital remains open, operational, and committed to serving this community safely and reliably.
