I agree......when we lived in PA we had great medical facilities but we were so close to major cities and those facilities had major financial investors. I have told many, that if HC is critical to you maybe you should consider someplace else. Not saying it is bad here, just that there are better places in this Country. I'm not sure how they can fix the ER issues this time of the year....making the investment for peaks in the winter is probably not a good business decision. Finally, I would love to see them change the name of hospital, too many people here believe it is affiliated with The Villages
