Episode Details

Nurses at Brattleboro Memorial Hospital are rallying to save their local birthing center, just days before the hospital board’s critical decision meeting — as the board prepares to shut down the facility in 6-9 months due to mounting losses of nearly $4 million last year. With fewer births and high staffing costs, hospital leadership says finances demand closure — but nurses warn it would force expectant mothers in Windham and Windsor counties to travel farther for care. The rally is a last-ditch effort to convince the board to find a way to keep the center open, pitting essential healthcare needs against hard financial realities.
