Reginald Barner, Weston Center board chair and Aiken Housing Authority director, told Midland Valley Chamber of Commerce the Margaret Weston Medical Center will stay open despite financial struggles. He cited a sliding fee scale, reduced indigent fees, and a lean staff, warning that closure would push 1,000 monthly cases to crowded emergency rooms and urging community support and volunteers.
