Summary

At a special meeting on May 26, 2004, the Beaver Island Rural Health Center approved an optometrist’s contract calling for no rent. The same brief report also says the Board accepted an NP preceptor from Saginaw Valley State University.

Evidence limits

The newspaper item reports the decision but does not reproduce the contract, identify the optometrist, or document the preceptor arrangement’s duration.
