Norman (Okla.) Specialty Hospital, a 50-bed long-term acute care facility, will close its doors September 9.
Employees told News 9 they learned about the closure this week. All 167 positions at the hospital have been cut.
The hospital specialized in treating medically complex cases that require extensive recovery time. Length of inpatient stays averaged one month.
Hospital administrative staff declined to comment on the closure to News 9 and directed all questions regarding the closure to their public relations firm. The PR firm wouldn't provide details about Norman Specialty shutting down, but did say the hospital would try to make the closure a smooth transition for patient.
