Hospital Finishes Fiscal Year in the Black

Despite increasing costs, Lake of the Woods District Hospital managed to record a small surplus this past year.

The hospital was 80 thousand dollars in the black in the 2011/2012  fiscal year.

Vice President of Corporate Services Cindy Gasparini admits it wasn't easy to balance their books.

Gasparini says the outlook for the year ahead isn't very rosy.

They are expecting only a modest increase in spending of just 0.4 percent from the province.
