The Rev. Ronald Slaughter, who led a coalition of ministers advocating the sale, said saving Saint Michael's was an issue of social justice.
"Prime Healthcare has committed to upholding the Ethical and Religious Directives that were an integral part of Saint Michael's mission as a Catholic hospital," Slaughter said. "While Prime Healthcare is not a religious institution, they have demonstrated a commitment at their other hospitals around the country to serving those who are less fortunate."
