It's the hospital--not just the ER--that is constipated.

And the cure for constipation is a darn good enema--an
administrative enema!!!!
I feel sorry for the nurses and doctors on the front lines, whose reputation gets constantly smeared because administrators sit in meetings and come up with P.R. crap like this, that makes the clinicians look like they're not even capable of keeping pace at a
fast-food joint.
Human beings that are sick in many different ways within one single body are a lot more complex
and variable than cranking out hamburgers on a grill and assembly line!
