Hope for Area Hospitals is Tenuous
Last spring, after the closure and lay off of 181 hospital staff, Platinum Team Management of Texas took over Noble Health in Mexico and the Callaway Community Hospital in Fulton.
Callaway is scheduled to re-open in Fulton by September 21st with full emergency room and inpatient services, but Platinum is finding it difficult and is actively looking for funding and investors.
It’s reported that plans are in motion to open Audrain with at least emergency room, minimal beds, radiology, a lab, and pharmacy in order to get licensing reinstated. There is no projection as to when that will happen.
