me in seeking your considerate
approval of this issue in order
for us to move forward to serve
the citizens of the county better

step in that direction. We simply
cannot fall back in not meeting
our commitments for accredita

need your help on June 3 to
insure our future in providing
proper service to all our pat
ients."
