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?

AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT DESERT SPRINGS HOSPITAL AND MEDICAL CENTER

Las Vegas-based Valley Health System, an operator of regional hospitals, has announced that Desert Springs Hospital and Medical Center, a regional hospital serving the Las Vegas area, will cease hospital operations and convert to a free-standing emergency room.

The conversion will impact 970 employees when inpatient services cease on or about March 11, 2023.

According to a hospital spokesperson, “Although Desert Springs Hospital has performed admirably during this extraordinary time, we continue to encounter existing and new challenges as an organization. As you know, we are an aging facility with complex physical constraints. Due to those factors, the assessment of the future state of the hospital has been under review for some time. The required renovations would be highly disruptive to operations and require a significant capital investment."

“Coupled with the fast-changing landscape of healthcare, which includes labor shortages and cost increases due to inflation, these unanticipated challenges have expedited the need to adapt our operations.”

AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT TELEDOC

Purchase, New York-based Teladoc Health, operators of a platform to provide telehealth appointments and visits for primary care, non-emergency care, therapy, and nutrition practitioners, has announced a restructuring plan intended to reduce operating costs.

The restructuring effort impacts approximately 300 employees.

According to Teladoc CEO Jason Gorevic, "At this stage in both our evolution as an enterprise and given the challenged economic environment, we believe that balanced growth is the right step for us as a well-run company. And so, after taking several non-people cost-saving actions, including ongoing real estate and systems consolidations, we concluded that today's moves were necessary."

"As some team members leave, we will also be making changes to our organizational structure to streamline our work and best capture the opportunities ahead including a further review of our real estate footprint and return on vendor investments."

"These actions put us on an even stronger financial footing at a time when many of our competitors are questioning their ability to keep their doors open."

"What I can promise you is that today's actions were based on our best assessment of our current business needs, with the sole intent of putting us on a better path to top and bottom-line growth.
