- Affected employees remain on payroll with benefits for 60 days and may receive severance, continued health insurance and career-transition support.
- Roles slated for elimination span management, support, administrative services and clinical care, including clinical pharmacists, case managers, housekeeping and food service workers, and a chaplain.
- The cuts are part of an operational restructuring that includes workflow changes, departmental reorganizations, position standardization and optional early retirement.
