Hospital Sisters Health Systems is announcing investments in two Green Bay hospitals, almost a year after closing two hospitals in Western Wisconsin.
The hospital says it’s using 270-million dollars to expand and remodel St. Mary’s and St. Vincent hospitals. CEO Bob Erickson says the health system is making a commitment in Green Bay, and will be there for the long haul. The HSHS closed Sacred Heart and St. Joseph’s Hospitals last March, leaving 14-hundred workers without jobs. It cited operational and financial stresses as reasons for the closures.
