An acute care hospital was closed by the British Columbia Ministry of Health in 1993. A research study was conducted to investigate the ways closure of the hospital affected hospital employees and to identify ways to facilitate the closure/reorganization process. Unstructured interviews were conducted with 25 employees around the time of closure and six months after the closure. In the category Living with Closure, six themes arose from the qualitative analysis. They related to (1) provision of information; (2) effect of closure on the working environment and colleagues; (3) perceived stress; (4) recognition of one's worth; (5) provision of support services; and (6) the process of having a new job. The authors offer recommendations stemming from the analysis, which are intended to assist others planning for future hospital reorganizations or closures.
1993年，不列颠哥伦比亚省卫生部关闭了一家急症护理医院。开展了一项研究，以调查医院关闭对医院员工的影响方式，并确定促进关闭/重组过程的方法。在医院关闭前后及关闭六个月后，对25名员工进行了非结构化访谈。在“面对关闭”这一类别中，定性分析产生了六个主题。它们涉及：（1）信息提供；（2）关闭对工作环境和同事的影响；（3）感知到的压力；（4）个人价值的认可；（5）支持服务的提供；（6）获得新工作的过程。作者根据分析结果提出了建议，旨在帮助其他人规划未来的医院重组或关闭事宜。
