Health First is laying off 214 employees, primarily in management and administrative roles. This decision follows a review aimed at improving the delivery of community health services. Three patient-facing programs will be affected, with two being absorbed internally and one ending. Affected staff will receive a 60-day paid notice period, benefits, and job search assistance. The company cited rising care costs and insufficient operating results as reasons for the reductions.
