COUNTY PUBLIC RELATIONS UPDATE:

“The information posted on this blog, which has also been shared on social media that claims that Delaware County Memorial Hospital and Springfield Hospital will be converted to house immigrants in Delaware County is not true. There is absolutely no truth to this rumor. Some social media posts also claim that County Council voted on the decision to use the hospitals to house immigrants in Delaware County. There is absolutely no truth to that rumor either.

Delaware County Memorial Hospital and Springfield Hospital are owned by Prospect Medical Holdings and both hospitals are currently for sale. The County does not have the authority to vote on the use of the buildings. In order to ease the concerns of residents, the County contacted Prospect Medical Holdings and were informed that the rumors circulating are absolutely false and that Delaware County Memorial Hospital and Springfield Hospital will be not converted to house immigrants in Delaware County.”

It’s important to note that NGO’s(Non Government Agencies, like HIAS, are Non profit organizations that have acquired(in other states) hospitals much like Delaware County and Springfield in order to convert them into non profit illegal immigrant shelters.

I stand by my sources and whether this is a county decision or not, I trust the individuals who fed me the story and truly believe getting the word out early is the best way to prevent this from happening in our own backyard.

ORIGINAL POST: As I await the Delaware County Council to confirm, I have confirmed with 3 confidential sources close to the work in progress that the now Shuttered Delaware County Memorial and Springfield Hospitals will be converted to house illegal immigrants in Delaware county.

You now must wonder, did the County Council plan for this ahead of time when they shuttered these 2 much needed medical facilities in Delaware county.?
