Community Meeting on Future of DeGraff Memorial Hospital

By Mark Scott

Buffalo, NY – A public meeting will be held Thursday on recent efforts to reverse the Berger recommendations to convert DeGraff Memorial Hospital into a nursing facility.

State Senator George Maziarz and Assemblyman Robin Schimminger are asking residents of the twin cities to attend a meeting at 3:00 at the Knights of Columbus on Erie Avenue in North Tonawanda. They say it's not too late to save DeGraff as an acute care hospital.

Assemblyman Schimminger joined us on the phone to talk more about the hospital's future. Click the "listen" icon above to hear Mark Scott's interview now or use your podcasting software to download it to your computer or iPod.
