We have a lot of good things, let’s continue to work toward that.

Ben Bennett, County Commission Chairman said that Geary Community Hospital is doing a good job of trying to address decreases in revenue, patient loads, and keeping doctors and services in the community at the best level possible.

“There are some concerns about the growth of other medical services in our community,” said Bennett. “Commissioner Ascher and I have both voiced those opinions concerning the military, the clinics, the hospital, the workloads.”

Bennett noted that there are challenges, but the County is trying to provide the best services possible for the community.

“They’re starting to step up – people who work at the hospital, the doctors of this community and our administration and our citizens are starting to step up and say ‘yes we have a lot of good things, let’s continue to work toward that in all these areas’.”

Bennett updated JC post on the issue during a County Commission meeting on Monday.
