Visitor raises MRI shielding concern; architect offers design support
Summary
A Bettisworth North representative offered continued design assistance for the new facility. A community member asked the board about MRI shielding and expressed concerns about local cancer rates; another speaker thanked staff for care.
During the public comment period, Roy Rountree of Bettisworth North told the board that his team "continues to be happy to work with PMC in designing New Facility and are available to take any questions anyone may have." A second visitor, Tom Kowalski, asked about the hospital's MRI shielding and raised concerns about local public health issues, including cancer rates, urging the board to review available information and investigate potential concerns. Jennifer Bryner offered public thanks as a family member of someone who received care at PMC.
The board did not record a technical response to Kowalski's request in the minutes beyond subsequent CEO remarks describing the MRI suite design and safety procedures; no technical shielding data or report was included in the meeting record. The minutes show the hospital continues to engage design partners and community stakeholders as facility work proceeds.
