Board approves discontinuing occupational health service line at Sonoma Valley Hospital, effective July 17
Summary
The board approved a motion to discontinue the hospital's occupational health services (workers' comp/employer services) because of low volume; hospital leadership said the service will end July 17 and the decision was approved by voice vote.
Hospital leadership told the board that employer services tied to workers' compensation had dwindled and the hospital no longer had the business to keep the occupational health clinic operating. Kelly asked the board to approve formally discontinuing that service line at Sonoma Valley Hospital as of July 17.
A motion to approve the discontinuation was made, seconded, and the board approved the action by voice vote; no opposition was recorded in the meeting transcript. The CEO said the final follow-up visit for existing workers' compensation cases is scheduled for July 17.
