The Riverton Medical District organized a public meeting on Monday to discuss the future needs of health care in Riverton.
The group formerly called Save Our Riverton Hospital met at St. Margaret’s Gymnasium in front of a large crowd.
Riverton Medical District describes themselves as a “grassroots community group advocating for high quality and comprehensive health care services located in Riverton, including those offered by a local hospital.”
The group discussed growing Riverton’s medical system and contracting with a specialized resource for a “full feasibility study.”
Possibly the most notable takeaway from the meeting, the group mentioned that they have received an 8-acre land donation from the REACH Foundation for the purpose of building a new hospital. The piece of land is on the southeast corner of Sunset and Major.
