Added: 1A Update of Gadsden Memorial Hospital - Mike Glazer, Deputy County Attorney
Moving forward quickly will continue to
escalate til opening. Project opening
date is June 1, 2010. Some construction
still going on. (Pharmacy, EMS Canopy) Equipment coming in daily. Bottom line numbers will be lower than first
thought - $2.5 million for furniture and equipment.
Security is on site provided by Sheriffs
office. Meetings are ongoing with
CRMC. Staff will be coming on during
last two weeks before opening.
Must now begin to wind down Urgent Care. Logistics must be worked out.
Ghost of Ashford still haunting. Purchase orders and credit issues with vendors
have arisen.
Volume of medical records is massive. Ultimate hope is to get permission to have
them destroyed. Must work with
bankruptcy court to come up with a disposition plan. Court would have to approve the public
notice.
Target date to open June 1, 2010 Grand opening will be a bit tricky

Item 5.pdf
Commissioner Taylor asked for a list and
explanation of how these recipients are selected. This is too subjective. Is this board active that makes this
selection? There is an advisory board
that should meet and decide, but, there is rarely a quorum. Deadlines must be met. Cant stop just because the members wont
attend the meetings. Who is on the
board? Who represents each
district? Contact Numbers of the
advisory board members to be included to BCC.
Insurances for fairness to all applicants.
Phyllis Moore
responded list they are working from was approved by the board.
Instruction to Ms. Moore get all the lists (applications for all programs,
advisory board members, etc.) to each
commissioner and the administrator as requested. Before the sun sets today.
Bring back Item 5 after information provided to the
commissioners and administrator.
