By Meg Wingerter Staff Writer mwingerter@oklahoman.comOklahoma City — On Dec. 8, Lana Shaffer got the message to pack up her desk at the Harper County Health Department and not come back. After 16 years of service, Shaffer was told the Oklahoma State Department of Health didn't have the funds to pay her and most of her colleagues in the partner engagement office, which worked with communities to get grants and other help for their health-improvement projects. To Shaffer, it was galling for multiple reasons: because the central office in Oklahoma City escaped with a small percentage of the layoffs; because employees with long careers and admirable track records had to leave suddenly; and because, when it became clear the layoffs weren't necessary, no one tried to make amends for those who lost their jobs. “There's a lot of good people that have given a lot that lost their jobs,” she said.
