Susan Tucker Sworn In to WCCC Board

Susan (Gladstone) Tucker was sworn into the WCCC board at their regular meeting Wednesday, filling the Middlefork (Worth) spot. Jim Larson is running unopposed for the vacant West Fletchall seat and Jeff Thummel is running unopposed for the West Union seat. Following the April election, the WCCC will have a full board again.

The facility made an $11,000 profit despite the three pay period month. The current census is down to 20 residents. There were issues with the boiler and the fire alarm. There were six outpatient customers with workman's comp issues.

The WCCC will be holding its March Spring Fling on March 19th. There are currently three rooms left in the Renovation Project and work has begun on the west shower room. Administrator Bev Miller said that she was working on a newsletter and possible surveys for the community. An Easter Egg Hunt will be held on April 4th. Future work on the facility includes updating the electrical system.

The board approved a proposal by Secretary Victoria Rush and assistant Jozy Moyer to go to paperless technology for bills and payroll. They said that it would be simpler for bookkeeping purposes. Board President Mike Hall would still review the expenses like he currently does. Paper checks cost the facility $257 for every 5,000 that they order. It would mean that Rush would not have to drive to Allendale, where Hall's shop is, to deliver checks and Hall would not have to take time off work to come and look at checks. Board members said that security would be tighter with the paperless technology than it is with the current manual system.
