There was another group at the Washington County Hospital Board of Directors meeting last night.  There have been members of the Concerned Supporters of Washington County Hospital at the Board meetings for nearly 6 months, as they have had several issues with the Board and Administration.  Their numbers have been dwindling in the past few months, as there were approximately 7 in attendance.  The Proud Employees of Washington County Hospital had approximately 16 people in attendance and spokesman Tim Heckman read a statement to the Board.  It talked about the survey the CSWCH group put in the Nashville News early this month on behalf of the employees.  In the statement, they say that the CSWCH don’t represent the employees and have even been contacting them during shifts or even on personal phones.  It asks the CSWCH to please stop and move on.  One member of the audience complained that he could not hear, as some Board members’ backs are facing the audience.  CSWCH spokesman Charles Braly made copies of their survey results available to the public and the Board, of which they had 170 responses.  He also addressed the Board about their duties and responsibilities.  He also said their complaints are not directed at the employees.  Board Chairman, Victor Lopez, presented the hospital employee survey.  He said they have something they can use as a baseline for comparison now.  There were 169 employees at the time of the survey and they receive 125 back, a 74 percent return, compared to last year’s 49 percent return.  There were 24 questions on the survey and room for suggestions or comments.  There were many positive comments, as well as suggestions on improvements.  Lopez was pleased that many of these replies were not just a few words, but several sentences to paragraphs long to explain the concerns.  That committee agreed on taking out the questions asking years of service and employee position.
