<br />Page 2 <br />City of Roseville <br /> <br />With the completion of the Consultant Report, the hospital <br />prepared their own 50 page report on the findings of the <br />Consultant, combined with their business plans. Comments <br />from their report are: <br /> <br />"Urgent Care per se is not supported as the sole <br />component of a health facility, but should be considered <br />as an adjunct or complement to a 'multi-product' <br />facil i ty" <br /> <br />"site selection for urgent care/primary care---suggests <br />an orientation along 1-694 in the NW and NE sections of <br />the study region" <br /> <br />Under "Recommendations" they state: <br /> <br />IISponsor or support an expanded multi-product primary <br />care facility in the Roseville a rea II <br /> <br />IICotLsider emphasis on ambulatory surgery promotions in <br />the Roseville area II <br /> <br />It is clear after reviewing both reports that Roseville can <br />not support a 'free-standing ambulatory service' and that in <br />both cases, the recommendation is that they "spOonsor or <br />support an expanded multi-product facilityll such as is being <br />planned now. It is also clear, that if such a facility can <br />not be formed, that the ambulatory service should be located <br />somewhere along 1-694, preferable to the north of that high- <br />way even though Roseville is listed as having the highest <br />need for "Cardiology Services" in the entire study area. <br /> <br />Both reports also support the decision that if a IImulti- <br />product 11 facility was available in the Roseville area, that <br />they should join forces with that facility; this is the type <br />of facility that is now being planned. After preliminary <br />meetings with the hospital group, they have indicated that <br />it may well be within their best interests to provide 24 <br />hour urgent care rather than only After-Hours urgent care. <br />We would consider this a big plus for the residents of <br />Roseville, considering that it is the general consensus of <br />the medical community that Roseville will never have a full <br />service hospital. <br /> <br />In response to the above two studies, and further 'mapping <br />studies' commissioned by «(loll t iCare Associates of the Twin <br />Cities, RMC & Associates was formed and purchased a site for <br />the facility to meet these needs. <br />
