Columbia Valley Community Health recently gave a tour to officials from Representative Brad Hawkins office. Taylor Kenck, legislative aide to state 12th District Representative, sent a letter to Patrick Bucknum, CEO, thanking him for the tour and information. In the letter, Kenck stated that he was impressed by the responsible management of CVCH, the state-of-the-art facilities, and what the organization has achieved.
"There is no doubt in my mind that CVCH is a good steward of the tax dollars it receives. The service that CVCH provides is essential to our area, and its effectiveness is directly impacted by how the funding is used. Thank you for being honest overseers of those funds."
Over the past few months, several government officials have come to visit CVCH and meet with its leadership, including Senator Linda Evans Parlette, also of the 12th District, and most recently, Congressman Dave Reichert, of Washington's 8th District.
