KDKA reporter Ralph Iannotti once again brought recent details in a video posted over the weekend following the “on-again, off-again payroll mess” at the Ellwood City Medical Center.
According to the video report, the medical center failed to pay its December electric bill, which has cause some in the community to want to take action.
Mayor Anthony Court said the borough would “ignore penalty or interest charges on the electric bill for the next three months.” The only stipulation, the Borough’s mayor stated in the published report is the money saved has to go to help some of the hospital employees. It totals about $20,000.

Most recently, a nurse and concerned Ellwood City resident, hatched a plan and created a GoFundMe page.
According to the page titled ‘Help Our Ellwood City Hospital Workers‘, numerous hospital personnel have gone months with no pay checks and have to deal with bounced checks. This is unsatisfactory. It’s time to step up and help. Thanks for all your support.
The page was created on Sunday, January 13, 2019 with a set goal of $10,000.00. [DIRECT LINK]
