Richardson Medical seeking information about its early days

Richardson Medical Center is beginning work on a historical mural for its front lobby, a project aimed at honoring the physicians, leaders and community members who helped shape health care in Richland Parish over the past several decades.

Mallory Williams, marketing coordinator for Richardson Medical Center, said the hospital is gathering historical dates, names and milestones to ensure the mural accurately reflects the facility’s legacy. While some records are available, Williams said additional information is still needed.

“We’re working to confirm dates and details from the past,” Williams said. “We’ve reached out to former employees and are also hoping to review archived newspapers to help fill in the gaps.”
