This hospital should be closed. They take foundation money people like me gave and give it to the CEO for his retirement paln over the past few years they have given Jeff Susie millions. I gave money to this hospital for 8 years, found out about this from the 2005 tax return and have never gave another dime. I was giving money to support the ED and new Heart center not the CEO's wallet fund.
