Lane Hospital Cuts Jobs and Closes Clinic | Baton Rouge News

from Baton Rouge News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Lane Regional Medical Center in Zachary is making hard but necessary cuts to stay financially stable—eliminating 18 jobs and closing its Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology Clinic due to rising costs, staffing shortages, and unsustainable patient volumes. Hospital leaders admit the moves are painful but essential to ensure long-term care for the community. They’re also exploring a potential partnership with another healthcare system since mid-July to strengthen finances and attract new doctors, though no final decision has been made. Despite these changes, Lane remains fully operational and committed to delivering quality care. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
