Baptist & St Mary’s Hospital Merger
Two local Knoxville hospital “systems” are merging. Both hospitals will keep their names, but their management company will change names. My only hope is that Baptist will hire enough people (from custodians to nurses) to actually make their river side location function correctly. The last few times I have been in the hospital I have been shocked by how understaffed and how unmaintained the hospital has been. Since my father prefers Baptist to other hospitals I am personally interested in seeing it improve. I hope St Mary’s - with their capital infusing and better management - can get Baptist back up to where it should be.
