Troy Record: Lonely at the Top

The Troy Record reported on this week’s announcement that SPHP would accelerate its Troy Master Facilities Plan and consolidate different services at Samaritan Hospital and the St. Mary’s Campus.

The Women’s Imaging Center at St. Mary’s Hospital has been awarded a three-year accreditation in breast ultrasound by the American College of Radiology.

As of October 1, Samaritan Hospital officially becomes the inpatient hospital in Troy, while St. Mary’s becomes an advanced ambulatory care campus. Norman Dascher, chief executive officer of Samaritan and St. Mary’s, talks with the Times Union about the transition.
