NMMC-Pontotoc Welcomes Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
PONTOTOC, Mississippi -- North Mississippi Medical Center-Pontotoc is proud to announce psychiatric nurse practitioner Hollie Moffatt has joined the Senior Intensive Outpatient Program.
“Moffatt’s deep experience in mental health and geriatrics coupled with her people-first approach will continue to grow and strengthen the Senior Intensive Outpatient Program as we deliver group therapy and medication management to area seniors,” said Program Director Liz Williams.
Before becoming a nurse practitioner, Moffatt cared for patients as a registered nurse for 20 years, including 15 years with North Mississippi Health Services. She served as a psychiatric nurse at NMMC Behavioral Health Center and the North Mississippi State Hospital in Tupelo. She returned to NMMC Behavioral Health Outpatient Clinic in 2021 after becoming a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner in 2020.
Moffatt earned her undergraduate degree from Mississippi College in Clinton. She graduated summa cum laude with a master’s degree from the University of Mississippi School of Nursing in Jackson.
Moffatt is a native of Tupelo and grew up in New Albany. From a young age, Moffatt said she has found a sense of comfort in the kindness and grace of senior adults. Inspired by her grandmother’s Alzheimer’s journey, she was drawn to geriatrics as a health care professional.
She and her husband, Joe, have two daughters. They attend The Orchard in Tupelo.
The Senior Intensive Outpatient Program offers group and individual therapy and medication management for older adults with depression, anxiety or other mental health needs. The program includes lunch and transportation within 30 miles of NMMC-Pontotoc. For more information, call (662) 488-8007 or visit nmhs.net/senior-intensive-outpatient-program.
