PORT ANGELES — The uninsured may go unserved at 909 Georgiana St. The cottage is the Volunteers in Medicine of the Olympics Clinic for people without medical insurance — many of them employed — who might otherwise crowd the emergency room at nearby Olympic Medical Center.
Among VIMO’s problems are the looming loss of its executive director and its clinic manager.
Grimmer is the possibility its doors may be close with increasing frequency.
In July, Gina Steinmetz, RN, will leave as the clinic’s director when she and her Coast Guardsman husband — Master Chief Petty Officer Dale Steinmetz, commander of the cutter Wahoo — are transferred to Cape Cod, Mass.
Next month, David Goldstein, RN, the clinic’s interim manager, expects to take a job with a government health agency.
No one is standing at the head of a line of applicants to replace them.
