Aultman UPDATE: Nurses, Others Can Apply for Open Positions Despite WARN Notice Filing

CANTON, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – Despite the 60-day WARN Notice issued to Ohio Job and Family Services this week, Aultman Health Foundation tells WHBC News that all 187 nurses, physical therapists and others losing their jobs with the closing of two skilled nursing facilities will have the opportunity to apply for similar or other positions with the hospital system.

Aultman told the state that 153 full- and part-time employers will be permanently laid off after April 2.

But there are also another 34 “casual” employees not listed there.

The Canton-based system says it has 600 open job positions.

Closing in three months are the Transitional Care Center at Aultman Woodlawn in Jackson Township and the Community Care Center at Aultman Alliance Community Hospital in Alliance.

Over 50 nurses are impacted.
