The Dr. John Warner Hospital's financial situation continues to turn around.

Last year this time the hospital's losses were over $780-thousand. CEO of the DJWH, Earl Sheehy says things have turned around so much that by the end of this month, they expect to break even or have a positive bottom line by the end of January.

Sheehy attributes that potential gain and the positive outlook on their budget to the drop in their workers compensation premiums. He explains having the ambulance's costs off their books has helped that as well.

With the added revues, the hospital has been able to make up some of the losses to their reserves. Sheehy says the sale of the ambulances also contributed over $260-thousand. He adds, they have not been forced to dip into their reserves for almost 18 months.
