The administrators at St. Vincent Hospital need to place their heads on the chopping block for their insensitive way of thinking. How can they, in all honesty, think that they are doing the proper thing by placing inpatients in the hallways of the hospital, especially when there is a 32-bed space not being utilized? What a waste.
They should hire staff and cut corners in other areas of the hospital and place the care of the patients first, not the almighty dollar.
Are we paying monthly premiums to be placed in hallways and perhaps treated like cattle?
Common sense needs to be applied in this hazardous situation. Let’s hope the people in charge have some to use.
