[Villages Kahuna]

I’ve been told by people who know that The Villages Regional Hospital is having a similar problem hiring nurses, doctors and medical professionals. When UF Health took over they fired quite a few underperforming staff. Now for a wide variety of reasons, not just compensation, they’re having lots of difficulty hiring permanent replacements.

It’s a shame that such a beautiful, well-equipped hospital is only one of a few in the state rated with the lowest quality of care rating.

I’ve had a local primary care physician tell me, “If you wake up and find yourself in The Villages Regional Hospital, call a cab and get out of there as quickly as possible.”
