The mission is solid, this is the county’s safety net provider. As such many of the patients are at more advanced stages of illness than is typical. An operational director has opportunities to change how care is delivered here.

However some of the money problems can be attributed to questionable decision making locally and a seeming lack of cohesive financial strategic planning.
