Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas doing layoffs to meet 2010 budget
DALLAS — Parkland Memorial Hospital is eliminating 200 jobs to balance its budget for 2010.
Most of the positions are clerical and would have been phased out because the hospital is installing an electronic system to process medical records. Layoffees can apply for other vacancies in the hospital system. The weird thing about this layoff is that half the positions were already vacant, which means it's really a layoff of 99 employees. But let's not get technical. We're balancing a budget here, people.
