Senoia
residents may soon not have to travel so far for their
medical needs.
Newnan
Hospital director Glen Blake and Papp Clinic director
Charles Wilson told the Senoia City Council Monday night
they were interested in opening a satellite facility in
the eastern Coweta town.
Wilson said
the two health care providers had just received the
results from an Atlanta consulting company that showed
Senoia as an excellent location for a health care
facility.
"Your
community looks very promising," Wilson said.
The Papp
Clinic director said that he would like to hear input
from the community on whether to provide a health care
professional in the area.
Wilson and
Blake said they would like to conduct a survey of the
city to see how residents are currently receiving medical
care and if a satellite facility would be warmly
received.
Senoia
Mayor Joan Trammell said she would love to see a facility
in the city and pledged the city's support in conducting
the survey.
The two
directors explained the city would only have to provide
the address labels. Newnan Hospital and Papp Clinic would
absorb the rest of the costs, including the mailing of
the survey.
Senoia
officials will provide the addresses of all the residents
in the city and Wilson said he would buy mailing lists
other residents outside of the city, such as Haralson and
Alvaton who might also use the facility.
City
councilman Kyle Frank agreed with expanding the survey
outside the city limits.
"I
think you would draw people from south of here and also
eastern Spalding County," he said.
The mayor
pledged to throw the city's effort behind the proposal
and she would send the list of residents to Newnan
Hospital and Papp Clinic immediately.
