COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – In less than five months, the Community Health Center of Branch County will become a part of ProMedica.
Members of the ProMedica Foundation team were on hand for Friday’s joint meeting of the CHC Board of Trustees and the CHC Foundation Board of Directors.
Hospital Board Chair Mike Iveson said the first of two meetings with ProMedica Integration Team members took place last Friday.
He added both teams are working well together and that “it should be a pleasant journey”. The second meeting will take place in Toledo where ProMedica is headquartered on June 5th.
Gary Hart from the CHC Foundation said after being stuck for the last few years while the hospital was being shopped around to a number of entities, contributors feel more confident about donating to the Foundation with ProMedica stepping up. He said a five year strategic plan has been developed.
Hart said the next Foundation Board meeting will be in July. He said a lot of the action in the strategic plan will be working with the marketing department in an effort to reach out to potential donors.
