Amoxicillin….

What is the shortage amount that prevents building on the current convention center site?

I believe the State needs to get involved, I looking for synergy here not political game playing. Cleveland State should have a college of medicine, it should be the location for a large school focused on community based health care and call for assimilation of one large healthcare network merging UH, the Clinic and Metro.

The State should be considering how to get funding and linkage into this economic venture. A large school of medicine that offers a low cost education in community based family health care management, linked into a common regional system that prioritizes that.

What do we think health care is, only big business, if we are to become a national center then we have to have the most functional cost effective system. The Clinic is selling HealthCare management services to other countries, but only to those with deep pockets. We can become the go to for a better system.

Its layering, we can be the center for specialization but if we do not have the most practical and efficient system that offers primary care to the region that is universal in coverage then shame on us. Are we oblivious to the national healthcare initiatives?

We need regionalism, we need to have community health centers that are primary care locations with family style doctors that know their patients. Then they feed a knowledge base and also funnel specialty care to the specialization facilities. We should be expert and a teaching center for the entire process.

That is the convention part, and it can be an economic catalyst and it could draw people into the city.

Sutherland is looking for a seat on a commission that is obsolescent, we need a new and better system. We need to define the system and seek both federal and state support in initiating it.

The entire region how it functions day in day out, we need a big initiative that is all encompassing. The best proposal the ideal solution will offend most yourselves why? Its because all we do is chant hurray for me and screw everyone else.

Sorry…carry on.

IMO, a calculated reversal to differentiate herself from Peter Lawson-Jones. Lawson-Jones was the only commissioner who showed any sense on the original county administration building and convention center votes. Why would I want to replace him with someone who got it wrong last July? (Of course, I would be willing to vote for Sutherland if she were running for Hagan’s seat.)
