Wood County Health District is moving toward accreditation, though progress has been slow and may not be complete by the end of the year as first planned.
Staff members have been working to organize the great amount of required documentation, but it's "a tough road," Director of Nursing Ben Batey told the board Thursday.
"We're not quite there yet," Batey said of attempts to determine what needs to be gathered over the next five months. "Some of the things they want to see, we've never done."
Batey said a new billing system the district just implemented should make some data easier to gather from now on.
Batey also reported a series of meetings designed to determine and focus on key health issues in the county are ongoing. The next meeting is July 24 and is open to those with any health organization who have input on prioritizing issues.
