Records of three civic committees concerned with hospital services in River Falls, Wisconsin. The River Falls Health Facilities Study Committee in 1972 studied the feasibility of both City Hospital and St. Joseph's Hospital continuing to operate. A Hospital Steering Committee in 1975 met to implement merger recommendations which culminated in organization of River Falls Area Hospital, Inc. The third committee represented is the River Falls Area Hospital Capital Development Campaign Committee which began meeting in 1990 to raise $1,000,000 to finance a new hospital building.
