year Mr. Shook:
1 feel obliged to resign from the Health
cad Hospital Advisory Committee. Ao a
pediatrician, I can contribute little to
the administration of the Bangor City Hospitel
�•ith its geriatric population.
I had agreed to serve for discussion of
pediatric aspects of the City Health Nursing
:rogram--but find that this discussion in

the minutes remains .miniscule.
I remain interested in helping out with such
pediatric concerns of the Health Department,
_
in some other capacity...

SUBJECT: Meeigation Pram Health and Hospital Advisory Committee
John, this is to notify you that Dr. Robert Holmberg, local pediatrician,
Own resigned m a member of the Health and Hospital Advisory Committee.
His resignation is dated June Ila. and it is a term expiring in 2982.
A copy of his letter is emlosed.
Me *lot is to be filled by another phyaician.
Dr. Holmberg's interest an a member, was with pediatric aspects of the
Realth Department's program. Me found however, that the bulk of the
Committee meeting agendas are taken up with City Hospital matters.
Regrettably, this is true due to the State and Federal requirements that
m very mob of what the Nursing Facility does, ham to be followed by a
Scab of paperwork to and from its Advisory group.
I Moen old Dr. Holmberg in the pest. that I fully share his frustrations
with this problem. Usually, only one or two at moat, of the five to six
item agendas Save to do with the Health Department. at the expense of
cueing the matings to last lager than they On now, which averages two
hours or more. Therefore, we try to spread the Health Department matters
over a series of several meetings or preened coke decade by mail or phone.
We value having a pediatrician on the Committee Men we oma, and hope
another one applies, but admittedly, geriatric medicine dome Out hold
their interest. We have tried and will continue to try, the concept of
holding special additional meetings exclusively for Health Department
matters and, on occasion, thin has worked but attendance use been a
problem.
Somewhere along the line. I hope that thiscon be remedied. I am happy
that Dr. Holmberg hem agreed to meet infomelly with the public Health
Nursea on Matters of concern to them.
Places let me know if you base any questions.
