University Hospitals Health System announced
University Hospitals Health System announced it will be closing two of its suburban hospitals and emergency departments at UH Richmond and Bedford medical centers.
They say the reason is an unprecedented staffing shortage.
“This isn’t a decision about dollars, this is a decision about staffing,” says Dr. Paul Hinchey, President, UH Community Delivery Network.
On Aug. 12, University Hospitals will close the inpatient and emergency departments at both UH Richmond and Bedford Medical Centers. Those services will be consolidated into the expanding Ahuja Medical Center and UH Lake West.
Nearly 600 employees will be impacted, including 337 at Richmond and 280 at Bedford, but there will be no layoffs and all employees will be absorbed into other UH facilities.
What will stay? The Behavioral Health Center at UH Richmond will continue, and doctor offices will remain.
“All of our doctors will still be there, patients will still be able to access the doctors the same way they did before they will be the same faces in the same places,” Dr. Hinchey said.
