CORINTH, Miss. — Magnolia Regional Health Center (MRHC) has announced a new partnership with Lifeline Blood Services, marking a significant step forward in ensuring a reliable, local blood supply for patients in Corinth and surrounding communities.

Lifeline Blood Services, which has served West Tennessee for more than 75 years, is now expanding its mission to include MRHC as part of its growing service area. The organization will host regular mobile blood drives throughout the Corinth area and plans to launch expanded donor outreach efforts, local partnerships, and educational programs to promote the importance of blood donation.

“We are honored to welcome Magnolia Regional Health Center into the Lifeline service area,” said John Miller, CEO of Lifeline Blood Services. “This partnership allows us to further our mission of ensuring that every hospital and every patient has access to the blood products they need. Corinth and the surrounding communities can be proud that their donations will directly support their neighbors and loved ones.”

The new collaboration means a more responsive and streamlined blood supply system for MRHC — a development hospital officials say will positively impact patient care.

“We’re excited about this new chapter,” said Heather Mansel, BS, MLS (ASCP), MBA-HCA, Director of Laboratory Services at Magnolia Regional Health Center. “Partnering with Lifeline means a more streamlined, responsive blood supply for our hospital and ultimately better care for our patients. It also gives our local community a more personal connection to the donation process.”

Lifeline encourages all eligible individuals to participate in this life-saving effort. Blood donations collected through the new partnership will stay within the region, supporting patients locally and making every contribution more personal and impactful.
