这间黄金海岸外科医院在易主后将于本周结业,造成约60个工作岗位流失。

这间在2016年亏损达六百万澳元的医院,提供普通和专科诊疗,包括整形和重塑外科手术。该医院自定义为提供五星级住宿条件及餐馆水准的膳食。

成立12年之久的澳大利亚第三大私立医院集团Healthe Care,本周二完成了以1.55亿收购这间医院的前东家Pulse Health,该医院从而成为Healthe Care旗下13家私立医院之一。

而根据此前的报道,去年4月18日,中国绿叶医疗集团宣布与Healthe Care大股东正式完成交割,成为Healthe Care的新东家,这也意味着截至目前中国医疗行业资金规模最大的海外并购案正式落地。

Healthe Care的首席执行官Steve Atkins表示,黄金海岸外科医院的运营环境竞争激烈且面临市场饱和。他说在尝试所有方法挽救该医院的业务失败之后,他们无法出台可行性的战略,因为前东家Pulse Health也经营不利。

Steve Atkins表示该医院的60名员工中的大部分为临时和兼职护士和行政人员,他们已经于周一下午被告知。Healthe Care集团将尽量在医院系统重新安置失业员工。
