Aerial film scan shows campus growth amid construction

The campus offered a look back at a period of major growth, sharing an aerial image captured from a film scan that highlights changes made while construction was underway, the campus said in a social media post.

The post noted that every expansion since the image was taken has helped the institution better serve patients, families and learners across Mississippi. It did not specify dates or identify particular projects.

Campus expansions of this type typically aim to increase patient care capacity, modernize clinical space and support education and training for health professionals. Observing historical aerial images provides a visual record of how facilities and surrounding areas have evolved over time.

The image released on social media underscores ongoing development on the grounds and the role facility growth plays in serving the region. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
