Tacoma, Washington-based MultiCare Health System, a not-for-profit healthcare provider, has announced a major staff reduction and a realignment of some outpatient programs.
Approximately 229 employees, mostly in support roles like marketing, information technology, and finance, will be impacted with the goal of reducing expenses.
According to CEO Bill Robertson, “The decision to eliminate staff is never an easy one and it is not an effort that we undertake lightly. These reductions are unfortunately necessary as MultiCare works to address our financial challenges.”
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
