Nearly 100 workers have been laid off just a week after the emergency room and inpatient services at the Ellwood City Medical Center shut down. On Thursday, 92 people were called and told to clean out their desks because they were being laid off. This comes months after employees at the hospital says they had not received paychecks on multiple occasions. But community leaders are now trying to step in. State Rep. Aaron Bernstein is getting involved in finding new jobs for these people. He said his office is available immediately to assist with unemployment claims for them. Bernstein said he has already coordinated with city leaders to establish a payment plan for the employees who use Ellwood Electric. He is also going to be setting up a job fair, inviting other healthcare facilities.
