San Francisco Chronicle/SFGate/Victoria Colliver, 5/21/15. "Daughters of Charity hospitals hope to have new buyer soon."

Since Prime Health Services abandoned its $843 million bid to buy the Los Altos Hills nonprofit, officials with the struggling chain, which includes Daly City’s Seton Medical Center and O’Connor Hospital in San Jose, have been negotiating with potential new buyers.
“We’re pleased at the level of interest we have,” Robert Issai,
Daughters of Charity’s president and chief executive officer, said.
Issai said “several parties” want to buy the entire chain, while some
are interested in a single hospital or hospitals in a specific region." Read article.

Kamala Harris (Ms No Death Penalty) got her panties in a bunch and screwed up the whole deal.
Re: 546. I can't believe you moderators let that one through. How coarse! How uncouth! How foul!. I thought Personal Attacks and playground antics were not to be tolerated! Harris is well respected otherwise and running for Senate. I find her to be an attractive and intelligent woman who is passionate and cares and is an advocate for victims. The thought of her having a wedgie irks me monumentally. Are you upset she is attorney general and not a barista at Perfect Pour? So she does not support Death Penalty. She isnt the first, and won't be the last. Many with religious convictions oppose the Death Penalty.
826,Sure, both "course" comments (yours and 546) were posted.
Kamala Harris did put in jeopardy our essential need for a regional Medical Center (main location Daly City, and satellite location Moss Beach).
And since the State (Attorney General Kamala Harris) rejected the Prime Health Services offer, medical services at Seton Medical centers are affected, (reduced and declined). FYI, see the related article.
Meantime, while you advocate for whatever you consider "religious convictions" and opposition to the "death penalty", consider having compassion for the living, those who live in our region, and need urgent and critical care. (After all, the life saved may be that of your family, friends, or your own).
Fortunately, the Daughters of Charity Health System (which owns and services the six (6) hospitals in questions) continues to try to find an appropriate buyer.
Hopefully, the State, through the Attorney General's Office, Kamala Harris will not make impossible or reject the next offer to buy all of part of these hospitals, including Seton Medical Center (Daly City and Moss Beach).
