This fact sheet outlines the Grand River Hospital District's 2025 Bond Proposal, addressing the critical need for expanded space due to increasing patient volume and projected service population growth. The proposal aims to alleviate current space constraints in various clinical areas, reduce appointment wait times, and enable the hiring of additional healthcare providers and support staff. Key initiatives include constructing a new medical center, repurposing existing facilities, expanding the emergency department, and improving dietary services. The objective is to fund these improvements through a voter-approved bond measure on the November 2025 ballot without imposing any new taxes.

The meeting included the presentation and discussion of the Annual QAPI Review, which covered various domains such as quality and safety, strategic initiatives, public and employee relations, and quality reporting. Updates were provided on a recent CMS complaint survey, clinic quality, and the Care Center, including results from a state survey and plans for correcting deficiencies.
