Title: St. Francis to take on OSU medical residents Post by: Ibanez on September 05, 2008, 08:58:44 pm http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?articleID=20080905_1__StFra86888 (http://"http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?articleID=20080905_1__StFra86888")
Title: St. Francis to take on OSU medical residents Post by: waterboy on September 06, 2008, 07:14:39 am Realistically, what are the chances that Regional Medical will close down? I didn't like the sound of that. I suppose some will say that it is prime development property, but the indigent won't be in that group.

Where is Boone when you need him? Oh yeah, when he's not playing energy czar, he's sitting in the kings chair at his own private football stadium. Hillcrest and St. John's are about to feel the burden of patients that no one wants to acknowledge. Can't wait to see what the ER will look like at St. Johns.

Title: St. Francis to take on OSU medical residents Post by: Jonette on September 10, 2008, 11:12:55 pm Well, we (TRMC employees) were told Tuesday that Ardent has no plans to close the hospital. They said they were to talk with OU Wednesday and let us know what they found out. There are over 100 residency slots owned by the hospital. Noone can take those residency slots away. They are frozen. OU wants to expand their program and it is a natural fit.
The press release at least lets us know that they were not lying to us. People need to understand that the employees at this hospital love [:I]working there. There is a REAL need for our hospital in this city. If noone helps with this indigent care situation in Tulsa, they will be forced to face it if they let this hospital close. The indigents will just go to the other hospitals. GOD FORBID!! They won't be able to refuse them care, they won't be able to send them to the GHETTO hospital TRMC. There won't be that option. We just wonder if it is a coincidence that Kathy Taylor has not said ONE word about the situation. She wants to build a homeless shelter in White City, and she abviously doesn't care about the hospital closing. It may just be a ploy to relocate the homeless population away from her precious BOK Center!! Coincidence? We don't think so,since TRMC parking lot is marked as designated available parking for BOK events. She would be very happy to bulldoze the whole place and build herself a parking garage for her precious project.

They might just be able to make things NOT happen for OSU. Hmmmm.....they sure showed up at the table quick when OSU moved the residency. Title: St. Francis to take on OSU medical residents Post by: TheArtist on September 11, 2008, 07:34:44 am I wish we could take OSU Tulsa and hand it over to OU. OU will make things happen and grow that college. OSU just feels threatened that they will lose students at their Stillwater campus so fight against, or ignore and blow off ANY expansion here in Tulsa. They would probably be tickled to see OSU Tulsa and or the OSU medical center die on the vine.
