Nancy Dobbs, President of the Palm Drive Hospital Board, is running for reelection to the Palm Drive Hospital Board along with incumbents Chris Dawson and Linda Johnson. Please give them your support.
Nancy, Chris, and Linda can't match their opponents’ money, so they are asking friends and supporters to email this message to their friends in West County.
The current board, together with the remarkable Palm Drive staff and the strong management team, has made unprecedented strides in building a positive future for our local hospital.
Crisis management and bankruptcy are behind us. Palm Drive is no longer
running at a deficit and has begun making investments to improve our
services to the community, including a new and larger rehab center,
electronic medical records, and more. We can point with pride to the
outstanding patient satisfaction scores, the nationally certified Primary
Stroke Center, the innovative Telemedicine program linking seven North Coast
hospitals with Palm Drive, and many other similar, remarkable
accomplishments at our very own hospital.
We are at the beginning of a revolution in the delivery of health care in
this country, spurred by national health care reform. While the reform is
not as much as some of us would have hoped, it is an important and
historic beginning. Palm Drive has a board which understands the
significance of this moment, is capable of analyzing the options, and will
shape the best alternatives for health care in West County.
Even in the midst of this election season, the board is engaged in strategic planning meetings with Palm Drive staff, with physicians, and in the next weeks with the West County community.
I urge your support for the incumbents Nancy Dobbs, Chris Dawson and Linda Johnson. Together they make a team that understands the challenges and can continue to move Palm Drive forward on a path to success for us all.
