As Mission Health breaks ground in Franklin, service concerns linger
View Comments
As Mission Health breaks ground on the new Angel Medical Center, some in Franklin feel a new hospital won t address the health care issues in a community that s seen years of dwindling services.
On April 30, Mission broke ground on its new $68 million, 30-bed Angel Medical Center, which will replace the current hospital that opened in 1974.
Linda Tyler, a public health nurse in Macon County for 25 years who s now retired, is among those who don t think a new hospital will cure what ails the area s health care.
She said like a lot of small hospitals, Angel Medical Center wasn t perfect, but folks there would work hard to make sure there was enough staffing and that people could get the services they needed.
