Forum looks healthier after posting profit


YOUNGSTOWN —  Forum Health posted a $2.14 million operating profit in April after losing money in the first three months of the year.

Last month’s profit was aided by $286,000 in operating earnings from Northside Medical Center in Youngstown and Beeghly Medical Park in Boardman, which was the first time they had a profitable month since March 2004. They operate as one unit called Western Reserve Care System.

Forum’s biggest moneymaker in April was Trumbull Memorial Hospital in Warren, which posted operating earnings of $1.78 million.
