Commissioner says county working with counsel on PRMC concerns; joint public announcement expected
Summary
Commissioner Rick Shriver told the board he and fellow commissioners are working with legal counsel on issues involving Pratt Regional Medical Center (PRMC), and that a joint public announcement will be made when details are finalized. He urged constituents to contact commissioners individually rather than emailing all three simultaneously.
During commissioner comments on April 13, Commissioner Rick Shriver addressed constituent inquiries about the status of Pratt Regional Medical Center (PRMC). Shriver said the commission is "currently working toward a solution with PRMC through legal counsel" and that a joint public announcement will be made once details are finalized.
Shriver also urged residents to direct inquiries to individual commissioners when possible, warning that mass emails to all three commissioners can limit the board's ability to respond: "when constituents send emails to all three commissioners simultaneously, it restricts the ability to respond." The minutes record that the commissioners share the public’s concerns and are pursuing resolution through counsel but do not provide further detail about PRMC’s status or the substance of the legal work.
The commission did not take further public action on PRMC during the April 13 meeting; the comment was recorded as part of Commissioner Comments rather than as a formal agenda item.
