Negotiations continued Tuesday in bankruptcy court on the pending sale of five Steward Health Care hospitals.

At the same time, many are rallying against the presumed closure of two of its facilities: Carney Hospital in Dorchester, and Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Ayer.

We discuss the present and future impacts of the closures and sale with a former Carney ER physician and WBUR's Priyanka Dayal McCluskey.

This segment aired on August 7, 2024.
