Date:3/19/2009

FRIDAY HARBOR, Wash., March 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The San Juan County Public Hospital District #1 Board of Commissioners today approved a long-term service contract with PeaceHealth, a Northwest-based not-for-profit healthcare system, to significantly expand healthcare services for San Juan County Hospital District residents and Island visitors.
