Ste. Genevieve, Mo. (KFMO) - Ste. Genevieve County Memorial Hospital has announced a restructuring plan to address ongoing financial challenges.
Effective September 9, the hospital closed its Labor and Delivery Department and Home Health Department, while also making staffing adjustments in other areas.
