..."In a statement, the hospital’s board president said shutting down labor and delivery services was a difficult decision.
"We have made every effort to avoid eliminating these services," said Ford Elsaesser, Bonner
General Health's Board President. "We hoped to be the exception, but our challenges are
impossible to overcome now."
Some women’s healthcare services will still be provided at Sandpoint Women’s Health, but those related to labor and delivery will be transferred elsewhere."

Sad that they are having issues replacing Drs who have left but I think its BS to say they are afraid of being sued if they terminate a pregnancy, just concentrate on helping women who have decided to have children. Tell anyone requesting an Abortion you don't perform them, Ta Da ! No lawsuit.
