Mount Carmel ER Closes, Preventative Care Opens

Mount Carmel is shutting down its Franklinton ER on August 22nd—but don’t panic, it’s not closing for good. Just two days later, they’re launching a new primary care hub in the Fortuity Building, focused on preventative care and extended hours to reduce ER visits. All ER staff are being relocated, no one’s losing their job, and Mount Carmel’s 140-year commitment to the neighborhood remains strong. This bold pivot reflects a smarter, proactive approach to community health. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
