CEO Steve Harris said the decision was made after the hospital was unable to secure emergency department staffing for the Fourth of July weekend.
The closure announcement came less than a week after the hospital issued a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act notice, which gives the hospital’s nearly 300 workers at least 60 days notice before a mass layoff or closure. The hospital issued the layoff notice after Tucson, Ariz.-based TMC Health canceled its bid to buy the hospital.
The closure of Santa Cruz Valley Regional Hospital will leave the area with one hospital, 18-bed Northwest Medical Center in Sahuarita, which opened in 2020, according to the report.
