Operations to Continue Without Interruption
North Star emphasized that day-to-day services will proceed as usual during the bankruptcy proceedings. Patients can expect normal access to appointments and uninterrupted essential services, including medical, surgical, behavioral health and assisted living care.
Employees will continue receiving regular pay and benefits throughout the restructuring, the organization said.
“We are taking this step to safeguard what matters most — quality-driven care available close to home and the preservation of essential healthcare careers that support local families and anchor our North Country economy,” said Chet Truskowski, chairman of the North Star Health Alliance board.
He described the court-supervised restructuring as a pathway to financial stabilization while protecting essential services and jobs.
“This process is designed to ensure we can continue serving our neighbors for years to come,” Truskowski added, underscoring the system’s focus on patients, caregivers and staff.
