Illinois health officials prep to transfer patients from metro-east hospital

Illinois regulators are preparing to potentially transfer patients out of Gateway Regional Medical Center in Granite City and ambulances are being sent to other hospitals. The hospital is still open, but the Illinois Department of Public Health confirmed Gateway and another medical center owned by the same company are on bypass status due to “staffing instability.” St. Louis-based KMOV first reported the development. The operators of the 278-bed safety net hospital have been late paying staff. An IDPH spokesman said that the agency had alerted the state’s labor and employment security departments about unmet payroll at Gateway and at Vista Medical Center in Waukegan, Illinois. Both hospitals are owned by California-based company American Healthcare Systems. “Gateway and Vista are private, for-profit hospitals whose operations and finances are managed by American Healthcare Systems. Their lack of communication, transparency, and responsible financial management and contingency planning is extremely concerning,” the spokesman for the IDPH said in an email. “The Illinois Department of Public Health’s highest immediate priority is the health and safety of the patients and has been working and communicating with hospital administrative leaders in this regard.” Representatives from Gateway Regional Medical Center and American Healthcare Systems did not respond to

Granite City Fresh Market Coming to Bellmore Village

The Granite City City Council meeting opened on November 4, at 7pm. The minutes from the previous meeting were passed unanimously. In presentation of communications, representatives from Bellmore Village gave a presentation on the planned renovations of the stores they purchased, one of which will be Granite City Fresh Market. The market will offer a deli counter and fresh high quality produce. In public correspondence Susie Rodgers spoke first, on the behalf of Heather Groetecke. She read a statement from Groetecke that revolved around the "No" result of the recent referendum asking whether residents were in favor of data centers. She praised the community for standing together, calling for transparency and resisting a data center. Jacob Sudabris spoke next echoing the same sentiment as Grotecke, that the residents resisting the data centers are valid in their criticisms of the board and their concerns are not unfounded. As proven by the recent ballot initiative, they are speaking for the majority. He hopes the board will hear that message and adapt. Leslie Budoris followed Jacob, also sharing the same message as the first two speakers. She does not want a data center at all, under any circumstance. James Bailey was the next

The detonating of atomic bombs during World War II saved the young life of Harold Maness, who turns 100 years old on Dec. 4. “I thought I was going to be right in the middle of the war because I was attending 90 days of basic training in Georgia for the Army during April 1945. No hesitancy. Ready to island hop to fight. You think you’re ready for battle, but you’re not,” said Maness, who lived in Shrewsbury for six decades and now resides in Webster Groves.

Fairmont City Approves New Zoning Change

The Fairmont City village board meeting started promptly at 7:00 p.m. with an opening prayer and the pledge of allegiance. Roll was taken, and Mayor Michael Suarez noted that old business wouldn’t be addressed as the owner was still needed for information. Village Clerk Killian Weir then handled new business. First up was a zoning ordinance for 4426 Cookson Road, to change the zoning to commercial from residential, which was unanimously passed by the council. The next item up for consideration was a business license application for Jose Ramirez for a dual business at the Cookson Road address being rezoned. Together with his wife, they will run a tax service and a photography studio in the back. Ramirez talked about how his wife’s studio had been open before COVID.
