Laguna Honda Hospital Is In Crisis — Again

from Fifth & Mission · host San Francisco Chronicle

More than 700 patients at the San Francisco facility could be displaced as federal officials have threatened to withhold critical funding from the facility after two patient overdoses. Those non-fatal incidents triggered an investigation that found Laguna Honda, which had a patient abuse scandal in 2019, had fallen out of regulatory compliance. Reporter Rachel Swan tells Dominic Fracassa about the hospital's latest trouble, and what the Department of Public Health is doing to keep it open. | Unlimited Chronicle access: sfchronicle.com/pod Learn more about your ad choices.
