>Pascack Valley : Governor Chris Christie is doing the right thing
Pascack was always a great hospital serving many in the region with wonderful and professional care. There are many who would refer to Valley Hospital as “Death Valley” long before casting that aspersion on Pascack. Remember Pascack closed because of financial mismanagement: ” the hospital succumbed to a litany of ills that have downed other health care institutions, including reduced federal Medicare and charity-care reimbursement and growing competition from doctors who set up their own clinics for reconstructive surgery and other specialties that attract wealthy patients.” Pascack will reopen with management restructured to ensure success!
Governor Chris Christie is doing the right thing and we should all be thanking our lucky stars he is OUR governor! He is the first governor in a long time working as a governor of the people and for the people. Hopefully he will expedite the reopening of Pascack and we can all look back at the unconscionable behavior of Valley & our Planning Board and chuckle as the Village of Ridgewood is saved from this Master Plan debacle!
For Tracey “unofficial witch of ridgewood” who’s not a “fan of the governor” but “maybe there’s hope for him yet”; which encore performance would you prefer Corzine or McGreevey?
