PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A number of non-union workers at one of Rhode Island’s largest health care systems will be laid off.

The Providence Journal reports that Care New England will be letting go a number of managers as a way to reduce costs.

This comes after the company called off a merger with Southcoast Health in October.

No patient care employees will be laid off. The company has not announced how many will be affected.
