A couple of years ago, my husband was admitted to The Villages hospital four different times. Each time his cardiologist said he could go home, it took as long as 8 hours for the admitting doctor (from the ER) to sign the discharge papers. In the meantime, I am sure, there were other patients in the ER waiting for a room. There is definitely something wrong with the process. Hopefully, by now, they have improved.
