Massachusetts is still grappling with unresolved issues from the Steward Health Care crisis, but hospitals that were saved from closing during the bankruptcy process are adapting under new operators, Public Health Commissioner Robbie Goldstein said Wednesday., and health care voids left by the closures of Carney Hospital in Dorchester and Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Ayer, Goldstein said.
Carney Hospital and Nashoba Valley Medical Center each shuttered during Steward Healthcare’s bankruptcy, depriving those living nearby of an emergency room, primary care and pharmacy services. But talks about reopening the two facilities continue.

The Steward hospitals that were transferred to new owners"continue to adapt well," the commissioner said. While they haven't completed their work, both branches this session agreed on the need for new statutory safeguards to protect patients from any damage associated with management of health care facilities by profit-seeking private equity firms rather than non-profit corporations.
