Trinity County's only hospital, which opened just 14 months ago, will close this week as Texas continues to struggle to keep their rural hospitals afloat. On April 18, the Mid Coast Medical Center announced it would be closing down its operations in Trinity on Friday, citing financial concerns. They gave just a week's notice to the local hospital board, which fought to keep the hospital operating since doors opened in February 2024. The closest hospitals to Trinity are about 30 miles away.
