COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – Hillsdale Hospital has told the Branch-Hillsdale-St. Joseph Community Health Agency they are interested in a rental agreement to utilize the agency’s mobile van for clinics in small communities in Hillsdale County.
Health Officer Rebecca Burns told the Board of Health on Thursday the hospital would like to use the van perhaps two to four times per month.
Burns says this as an important need in Hillsdale County as there is not a county transportation system which is a barrier for some people to get health care.
Burns feels this would be a win-win situation. She says they have not been approached by hospitals in Branch and St. Joseph Counties because those counties have public transportation.
