A 26-year-old man climbed on a hospital roof dressed as a 'crow' which resembles a Grim Reaper outfit, as he flaunted a long knife has now been fined for his nuisance behaviour
While your sentiment is for sure in the right place, the inverse is the case right now; I don’t know of a region that isn’t floating at crisis levels for bed avaliablity (right now US hospitals are roughly 89% full, well over the predicted threshold for “shit starts collapsing” at 85%). It’s really, really bad out there.
Hey it could be worse, you could be at one of the psych hospitals! Poor fuckers are running at 400%+ capacity on a good day. They’re so overtaxed they’re turfing people from forensic beds, and anyone that isnt a critical emergent case is never getting admitted. It’s so much fun!
Oh! Whew! I was worried for a moment! Thishappened in the UK.
Perfectly fine to do this here in America. Actually most hospital rooms are empty. Ain’t nobody got money to pay for our broken healthcare system!

My hospital hovers around 100% year round. We were at 130% recently, that was bad. Very bad.

130%??? Are we talking like the stereotypical image of a collapsing country with patients laying in gurneys in the hallway?
Yes. This is in a major city in Colorado, we’re not a small hospital nor are we in a rural place. There’s no excuse
That’s wild! I’m sorry that you have to deal with that.
Aren’t the rural hospitals all heading towards closure due to changes in medicare/medicaid funding? I’m pretty sure you’re just in the new normal.

BOOP!
… can’t touch this.
