Jeremy(@jeremyct):My friend’s mom worked the same hospital for 22 years. Never called in sick. Covered every holiday shift. Knew every patient on her floor by name. Hospital got acquired by a private equity firm in 2021. By 2023 they cut her pension. Increased her patient load. Decreased her breaks. She filed a grievance. They eliminated her position. Called it a restructure. She was 58. Private equity didn’t buy that hospital to heal people. They bought it to extract every dollar before anyone noticed.
