Health center board delays decision on Wahkiakum clinic

The board of directors of the Family Health Center in Longview on Tuesday delayed a decision on taking over the Wahkiakum Family Health Clinic until the week of August 10.

Center Administrator Dian Cooper said Wednesday morning that the board received the final financial analysis just before their monthly meeting and they needed time to go over it.

"We had several board members who couldn't attend the meeting," she said. "I told the board I didn't want them to make a decision that night.

"It looks promising," she said.
