As part of the restructuring plan, the hospital eliminated five middle management and upper administrative positions. Employees who were affected by the reductions were notified last week and will receive severance packages.
“Mercy is the healthcare safety net for our community,” said hospital President and CEO John Broberg. “While our vision continues to be the provider of choice for the patients we serve, we expect that these actions and our continued focus on operations will help Mercy to sustain its delivery of high-quality patient care and consistently deliver the services that the community expects from our healthcare team.”
