All impacted employees have been valued members of our team, and we are treating them with dignity and respect during this difficult time.”
Calling it a “challenging time in the healthcare industry,” Mr. Barrett said the system is working to support the affected employees, helping some transition to other open positions at the health system or offering eligible employees separation packages.
