Seattle Children's Hospital Announces Layoffs and Position Eliminations
Seattle Children's Hospital has announced that it will be implementing layoffs affecting 154 employees at five of its Washington hospitals. The hospital is also eliminating 350 open positions, bringing the total number of affected positions to 504.
The layoffs are a direct result of federal funding losses that the hospital is currently experiencing. No alternative measures, such as salary reductions or furloughs, have been announced as a response to the funding losses.
The affected locations include Seattle, Bellevue, Everett, Federal Way, and Kennewick. The hospital has not provided information on whether the layoffs will affect patient care or how the funding losses will impact their services.
The layoffs will take place on Nov. 15 across all five locations. No plans for recovery or future funding have been publicly announced by Seattle Children's Hospital.
It is important to note that the hospital has not disclosed how the funding losses will impact their services or the exact number of layoffs for each location. Additionally, there is no publicly available information about the names of the executives at Seattle Children's Hospital responsible for the decision to implement mass layoffs and eliminate 350 open positions.
This news comes as a blow to the community, as Seattle Children's Hospital is a vital provider of healthcare services for children in the region. It is hoped that the hospital will find a way to recover from the funding losses and continue to provide essential healthcare services to the children who rely on them.
