WASHINGTON (DC News Now) — The George Washington University Hospital
(GWUH) initiated dozens of layoffs this week, the hospital confirmed on Wednesday.

The hospital cited this being a “challenging time in the Healthcare
industry” as a reason for the layoffs. As a result, the hospital is restructuring areas and departments in order to “increase operational efficiencies and reduce costs.”

In a statement, the George Washington University Hospital Nurses Union
said it was “deeply saddened to have learned of the elimination of certain positions and subsequent firing and/or demotion of GWUH staff.”

There were no announcements from the CEO or CNO and no word on plans prior
to the layoff announcements, the statement continued.
“We are in a profession of caring and UHS has demonstrated that they are
not. Our patients and staff deserve better,” the statement concluded.

GWUH said that, in total, about 60 staff members were impacted and less
than 3% of the workforce were eliminated. The majority, according to the hospital, were offered other positions in the organization.

“Most of these positions are not directly involved in the front line of
patient care delivery,” the hospital stated.

“All impacted employees have been valued members of our team, and we are treating them with dignity and respect during this difficult time. We are making every effort to support impacted employees, including transitioning
the majority to other currently open positions or providing eligible
employees with a separation package,” GWUH continued.
