Description
Program Description
It's the final two chapters of "Where It Hurts," exploring the closing of Mercy Hospital and its effect on the health care, economy, and community of Fort Scott, Kansas. This series, produced by Sarah Jane Tribble, comes from KHN, Kaiser Health News. - In Fort Scott, Kansas, the Community Health Center's big green and white sign replaced Mercy Hospital's name on the front of the town's massive medical building. In the final chapter of Season One: No Mercy, we have an appointment to see what's inside. We also meet wife and mother Sherise Beckham. She helps explain how much more difficult it can be to have a baby when a town loses full-service maternity care. Then, later when she gets a job, at — where else? — the health center, Beckham gives us a front-row seat to the new vision for health care in town.
