STAFFING CUTS: VNS Health, a health and social service provider, is laying off 34 employees at its E. 42nd St. office, according to a filing with the state Department of Labor. The cuts will impact phone operators, not clinicians providing care in the home, according to a VNS Executive Vice President and Chief Provider of Services David Rosales. The terminations "will enable us to make more care management and clinical decisions closer to the point of care for our patients,” Rosales says.
