Questions & Answers

1. If elected to the District Board, how would you approach the problem of the earthquake retrofitting required by state law?

If retrofitting is needed to protect life or property then it must be done.

2. In view of our area's high cost of living, what do you think can be done to encourage young physicians and technical personnel to come to El Camino Hospital?

Give to them the authority to provide the best and most thoughtful care. Pay must be competitive but often job satisfaction is more important.

3. What should be the function of the district board in relation to the administration of El Camino Hospital?

Set policies and monitor adherance to the policies.
