Examples of community members chipping in the fund, run and support a local healthcare option. Brochure states that after "the last quarter century" of use the Kirby House has been pronounced "inadequate" as a hospital building by the Michigan Hospital Council and Department of Health and will have its license revoked unless changes are made. The Hospital Board, therefore, decided to build "A New Community Hospital."
