Box 224 OCTOBER 23, 1997 Milford Hospital Outlook ByJohnGledhill Milford Valley Memorial Hospital and Clinics continue to remain busy even without the much desired OB delivery services. In order to be able to provide these services, we have been recruiting nation wide for a Family Practice physician. We have been recruiting and through journals, newspapers, inter-nwith many nation wide recruiting firms. It is very hard in to days medical world to find a physician, who not only can do General Medicine, but who can also do OB and surgery. Medical students rarely follow a tract, in their training that gives them this broad of a background. The trend today is to specialize. Physicians who can do it all, so to speak, are physicians who were more than likely trained in the mid to late 80's. These doctors are already established and are not looking to move. This is the type of doctor that Milford needs. Some of the things that make it hard to recruit a physician in a rural area is the perspective of loss that they feel they would have. This could be in shopping, cultural activities, longer hours, more call or lack of immediate other consultation with J.

Being a rural area can definitely be used as one of our stronger selling points. Many people, along with doctors are looking for a different life style. A style that they can raise their families in an environment that has less crime, less smog, less traffic, less gang problems etc.. Milford is a great place to receive these amenities. We have had several doctors respond, some who have come to our community, but as yet we have not been able to find just the right one who can fulfill our needs. In the meantime we will continue to meet the medical needs of our community through the excellent physicians and practitioners we currently have. There are few rural communities in America who can brag that they have local specialists in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics, as well as two very excellent practitioners. In order to relieve some of the work load of our present practitioners, Milford Valley Healthcare Services is proud to announce that we have hired Sharon Williams, a Nurse Practitioner to work here on a temporary basis. Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants are highly trained practitioners who are licensed to diagnose and treat patients much in the same way as a physician. They are widely used in rural areas and in many cases provide the only medical care available to these residents. Sharon comes to us, following the closure of the medical clinic in Monroe Utah. Sharon has had an extensive medical background with over 25 years' experience and is an expert in She is a concerned, adult patient care. compassionate individual. Not only is she skilled in the treatment and management of routine and acute medical problems, but she is also experienced in industrial, occupational and employee health.

"You have bought undeveloped land You didn't require the developer to put in the street because you needed your home Now, how do you create an orderly development?" Councilman Nick Swain asked Although the Milford City council technically tabled action on the SI I), Leo Kanell, city attorney, issued instructions that they must make some decisions based on protests. With protests totaling 51 of the footage as proposed, the SID can be denied. OR ... the two southern most blocks can be excluded, which would lower the protest to less than 51 Residents were told during the meeting that if the SID moves forward to the bid process, the city is bound by state statute to accept the lowest responsible bid which comes in below the engineers estimate. Troy Torgernson, Jones and DeMille Engineer who prepared the estimate, said Wednesday morning that the information was incorrect and that the city reserves the right to reject all bids whether they are above or below the engineering estimate. Torgernson explained that in order to keep the process fair, bidders do not have access to the engineering estimate... other than costs listed in the legal notice, of course.
