Following the announcement that East Ohio Regional Hospital will begin laying off staff in "ancillary services" on Friday, a local lawmaker has pledged support for both the employees and the community.

The article discusses the financial and operational challenges faced by Mercy Health-St. Rita's Medical Center in Lima, Ohio, which has led to the layoff of 40 employees and the elimination of 100 vacant positions. Ohio State Representative Susan Manchester has expressed her support for the hospital, criticizing the management for failing to pay employees, provide insurance, or cover taxes, which she deems "simply wrong." The hospital, part of the Bon Secours Mercy Health system, has been dealing with financial difficulties, including a significant operating loss in 2022. Manchester has vowed to work with the hospital to address these issues, emphasizing the importance of the hospital to the community and the need for better management practices. The layoffs and financial struggles are part of a broader trend affecting hospitals nationwide, with many facing similar financial pressures due to various economic factors.
