Business:

1) The Board adopted Bylaw #86, 2013 to provide $240,000 of the $600,000 for a Conceptual Plan to be developed for the Inpatient Unit upgrade (2nd Floor at Cariboo Memorial Hospital)

2) The Board received the Hospital Consent Calendar as of June 7th
3) The Board received a letter from Norman Embree, Chair for the Board of Directors - Interior Health regarding capital funding and Health Connections Transportation.

Editor's Note - I spoke to the letter expressing disappointment that Mr. Embree did not speak regarding Health Connections Transporation and around seniors housing needs - Quesnel vs Williams Lake. A very poorly written letter in my opinion, considering that is not what the Board asked for of Interior Health - read the letter yourself here

4) The Board received a letter from Dr. Robert Halpenny, President & Chief Executive Officer - Interior Health. The Board also agreed to write Accreditation Canada and request why Cariboo Memorial Hospital was not visited and thus wasn't in their report to Interior Health. Read more here

The Board adjourned at 10:12am
