    Well, Deaconess owns a minority stake in Methodist Health and has some representation on the Methodist Health board of directors. The board determined that Linda White is the best leader to guide Methodist Health at this time. Deaconess’ ownership stake hasn’t changed, hasn’t increased, and so it has NOT “officially” or unofficially taken control of Methodist Health. Deaconess continues to work with Methodist Health to improve processes, etc. – did you notice the latest scores for Methodist Health rose from F to C?

    • I wish Linda White would run for Mayor of Evansville………….after she turns Methodist around evansville needs her…………..Linda White for Mayor…………….little hank johnson demoncrat GA “guam would tip over and capsize” after America Marine buildup……………….yep enough illegals voting and this whole country will become a 3rd world shiff hole……………without a doubt………….
