At least 10 hospital executives from Nassau University Medical Center, including its CEO, have put in their resignations in response to what they called as a “hostile takeover” by Gov. Kathy Hochul, according to sources in the hospital.
CEO Meg Ryan confirmed to The Post that she and other leaders in the hospital have resigned effective in July, so that they can help oversee the hospital board’s transition, she revealed.
“[New York State] has made it very clear that they do not want me to be in the CEO role,” Ryan told The Post about her decision to step down. “It was the hardest decision I had to make in my career.”
Besides Ryan, at least nine other top officials made the decision to resign, including the hospital’s chief medical, nursing, human resources, and information officers, as well as senior leaders in pharmacy, facilities, finance, and special projects.
She and other executives told The Post that since the state budget passed earlier this month — which included language that allows the state to appoint seven board members to NUMC, with 6 directly picked by the governor — morale among leadership has been depleted.
With seven board members out of 11 being hand-picked by the state, Ryan and other hospital leaders have said this completely shifts the power balance.
But despite the transition being just days away, Ryan told The Post that the state has kept NUMC’s leadership in the dark and has not provided any information on who they’re appointing and how the new model will work.

Gotta say...I love it when they eat their own.
What’s the diff between a DemocRAT governor and a random pick of a homeless off of the street to govern?
Actually, I don’t know. Seems like a random choice to me, but neither one has a chance of doing anything good.
What? They don’t want state run “health” care? They’ve been okay with it, up til now.
Excellent news.
At least they can walk away from the American version of the DDR.
Gov. Kathy Hochul Is a fascist Nazi dictator.
She’s going full on dictator.
it doesn’t get much coverage, but she may be one of the most progressive and dictator governors in the country now. Honestly, I think it may be even worse than California, or at least on par.
Hochul is probably the worst. At least in California, they appear to be incompetent.
I believe it.
So glad we moved out of NYS before she got installed.
I want nothing to do with NY, CA, IL, etc. Let them drown in their own excrement.
Hochul is Schumers puppet.
Add OR and WA into that mix
1. A lot more graft and corruption feeding Democrat politicians.
2. More needlessly dead patients as the quality of care sharply declines.
Who do you think manufactured and nurtured the ouster of Cuomo?
NUMC should play the pack-the -board game and increase the board to 15 members.
