In difficulty for years, the Nancy hospital, which is one of the ten largest CHUs in France, will benefit from a state investment of 420 million euros to restructure, announced the Minister of Health , Olivier Véran, in
L'Est Républicain
.
“The State will finance the consolidation project on the Brabois site to the tune of 420 million euros, or 70% of its total cost. It is well beyond what was originally planned, ”
detailed the Minister.
These investments, which should make it possible to bring together seven sites on a single one, fall within the global envelope of 19 billion euros over 10 years negotiated during the “Ségur de la santé” and announced in favor of hospitals and nursing homes on March 8. by Matignon.

The State will also take over about a third of the CHRU's debt, or 128 million euros, which should allow it to
"find oxygen in its daily functioning,"
said Olivier Véran.
Finally, 300 of the nearly 600 jobs threatened by the restructuring project will be maintained.
"He stops the job-cutting program, but 275 have already been abolished,"
deplores the CGT.
In April 2020, when the first wave of the Covid hit the Grand Est, the director of the regional health agency, Christophe Lannelongue, triggered an outcry, believing that there was
"no reason to call into question »
the reductions of beds and jobs at the Nancy CHRU.
A few days later, Olivier Véran announced the suspension of this reorganization project.
Christophe Lannelongue had been sacked.
Referral since canceled by the Council of State.
