Despite Protests, St. James Closes Acute Care

From the Ledger, picked up by the Ironbound Blog: Despite bitter protests, Newark’s Saint James Hospital quietly closes

Despite months of angry protests by local residents, Newark’s Saint James Hospital closed today with more of a whimper than a bang.

This morning, moving trucks sat parked near the hospital entrance in the city’s Ironbound neighborhood. Flyers posted on the doors announced the closing in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
