SAINT VINCENT CATHOLIC MEDICAL CENTERS’ BOARD RELUCTANTLY AUTHORIZES CLOSURE OF MANHATTAN HOSPITAL
Financial Constraints Dictate Closure – The Board of Directors of Saint Vincent Catholic Medical Centers (Saint Vincent’s) reluctantly voted to authorize the closure of St. Vincent’s Hospital Manhattan inpatient services including all acute, rehab, and behavioral health.  The vote came after a six-month long effort to save the financially troubled institution, which has operated in the Village for over 160 years.
