Broward Health will start 2019 with a political and practical slack tide, a short period that is completely unstressed. This period occurs before the newly elected state and local political, and governmental forces are settled with their organizational transitions. I followed Broward Health’s activities generally since 1996 and intently since 2011. Never during that time have I seen a time …
Ding, dong. Broward Health’s Wicked Witch is Dead
Beginning just before the September 26 Board meeting, things began to change at Broward Health precipitated by the completely unfounded and unprecedented, personal attack against Commissioner Klein by corporate counsel Lynn Barrett.

Since 2012, I have attended most Broward Health Board meetings, and been writing articles published here and in my blogs www.BrwdHealth.com and DanLewisReport.com. My …
