Rapid City-based Regional Health has laid off nine workers in an ongoing staff shake-up instigated last year by a new top executive.
Seven full-time and two part-time workers in the Marketing and Public Affairs Department at the Rapid City hospital were let go. Spokeswoman Denise Dancy says Regional Health has "restructured" the department.
It comes about a month after Regional Health President and CEO Brent Phillips acknowledged significant turnover in the organization since he came on board Jan. 1, 2015. He said the turnover was related to his efforts to make Regional Health the top health care system in the nation.
Regional Health has hospitals and clinics in more than 20 communities and employs nearly 5,000 people.
