Records of three civic committees concerned with hospital services in River Falls, Wisconsin. The River Falls Health Facilities Study Committee began meeting in January 1972 to study the feasibility of two hospitals continuing to operate in River Falls: the City Hospital and St. Joseph's Hospital. Consultants Glunz-Strathy Associates recommended merger of the two hospitals and purchase of St. Joseph's by the city with operations continuing in that facility. A Hospital Steering Committee began meeting in January 1975 to implement these recommendations and completed its work in September with organization of River Falls Area Hospital, Inc. which assumed responsibility for completing the merger. The third committee is the River Falls Area Hospital Capital Development Campaign Committee which began meeting in 1990 with the goal of raising one million dollars to finance a new hospital building. Included for the 1970s committees are meeting minutes; correspondence with state and local officials, consulting firms, and others; the report from Glunz-Strathy; newspaper articles; and by-laws and regulations of City Hospital and the new merged hospital. Minutes, mimeographed issue papers and planning documents, and a printed brochure are present for the 1990 committee.
