40 DOMINICAN HOSPITAL REHABILITATION EMPLOYEES WILL LOSE THEIR JOBS ON WEDNESDAY. THE STATE AGENCY
OVERSEEING HOSPITAL FACILITIES HAS PUSHED TO INVEST IN UPGRADES FOR THE 610 FREDRICK STREET ADDRESS TO COMPLY
WITH THE SEISMIC SAFETY STANDARDS OR SHUT THE DOORS. THE $8.2 MILLION COST TO UPGRADE DID NOT MAKE ECONOMIC
SENSE TO THE HOSPITAL. DOMINICAN ALERTED 80 EMPLOYEES ABOUT POSSIBLE LAYOFFS, BUT MANY TRANSFERRED TO
OTHER ASSIGNMENTS.
