Taking away more

Thu, 04/03/2014 - 7:30am

Dear Editor:

It’s hard to believe, but LincolnHealth has done it again. They weren’t happy enough with taking away our hospital (“for the better”), taking away our emergency room, and taking away jobs from the region. Now, they will not give the towns money to help pay for the increased ambulance services, though they did last year.

Oh yes, they are going to pay for some education for the ambulance crews ... thank you so much, LincolnHealth.

To think we were told it’s all about better healthcare, not about the money. You’re right; you’re doing nothing with your money to help the Boothbay peninsula.

I would like to know what our Boothbay area representatives on the LincolnHealth board are doing for us? As far as I can see, all they are doing is giving in to whatever LincolnHealth wants.

LincolnHealth should be ashamed.
