Dear Friends,

As a leading healthcare provider in the region, Thibodaux Regional Medical Center’s
goal is to provide the highest quality, most cost effective healthcare to the people of
Thibodaux and the surrounding areas. After discussions with our physicians and our
Board of Commissioners, we have decided to play a more decisive role in promoting
healthier living and reducing the effects of disease caused by smoking.

Therefore, on January 1, 2007, Thibodaux Regional Medical Center is officially designated a
“smoke-free campus.”

By becoming a “smoke-free campus,” our goal is to help prevent some of the physical,
financial and emotional problems associated with tobacco-related illnesses and
conditions, such as emphysema, heart disease and cancer.

We appreciate everyone’s patience, understanding, and support as we continue to provide
excellence in clinical care and ask you to join our efforts to promote healthy behaviors
that can protect our community from unnecessary illness.


Sincerely,


Greg K. Stock
Chief Executive Officer
