National Prescription Drug Take Back Day April 26
Safeguard your loved ones and prevent medication misuse. Saturday, April 26 is National Prescription Drug Take Back Day! Properly disposing of old or unwanted prescriptions is crucial for preventing accidental ingestion, especially by children and pets.
Harrison County Hospital is a collection site, not only on Drug Take Back Day, but every day! Safely dispose of un-needed prescription medication in the Emergency Department waiting area. Look for the bright green box that looks like a trash can.

An Important Update about Obstetric Services at Harrison County Hospital
Harrison County Hospital has made the difficult decision to suspend obstetric services effective March 31, 2025, as we will no longer have any obstetric providers. This decision was made after careful evaluation of physician recruitment challenges nationally and the hospital’s commitment to ensuring viable, quality care for patients. Despite extensive efforts, recruitment challenges made it unsustainable to continue offering labor and delivery services at this time. Hospital leadership is committed to the communities we serve, with the expectation to provide quality care for expectant mothers and their infants. We are actively engaged in recruiting full-time and qualified obstetric providers to serve Harrison County Hospital.
We recognize the vital role that obstetric care plays in our community and understand that this change impacts many families. While OB services will be suspended March 31, we remain committed to ensuring a smooth transition for patients. Our team is working closely with each patient to provide referrals to trusted providers and assistance with transferring medical records to ensure continued access to quality maternity care.
While labor and delivery services will no longer be available, gynecological care will continue through Women’s Healthcare of Southern Indiana (WHCSI). Dr. David Murphy, a board-certified experienced gynecologist, will be joining WHCSI in May 2025 to provide complete gynecologic services and surgery. We want to recognize the hard work and dedication of every team member throughout this transition. Please be assured this decision has been difficult, and we understand the serious situation rural hospitals in Indiana face given the scarcity of obstetric providers. Leadership will continue to assess our community’s healthcare needs and keep staff informed of any future developments in maternal health services.
Stepping On Class Begins in April!
Deadline to register has been extended to March 27!
