The special master guiding the receivership of Westerly Hospital says its charitable donations won’t be in jeopardy of being snapped up by creditors.
A Rhode Island judge has issued an order allowing the special master and the hospital’s fundraising foundation to set up a segregated account for donations made during the receivership.
The Westerly Sun reports ( http://bit.ly/zv2eF3) that the action ensures financial gifts can only be used according to the donor’s wishes, not for day-to-day expenses.
