Will the expanded Villages Hospital ER be faster?
I wonder if it will be like Walmart. Walmart has a lot of cash registers open at peak hours but there are long lines of people waiting anyway. At off peak hours, only one cash register is open so you still wait in line.
In other words, extra beds will be there, larger facilities etc., but why would they have a large medical staff on standby if they don't expect a lot of patients at certain hours? And certain hours or days might be unexpectedly busy. If it's run like any other busines (think Walmart), they will want to keep the medical staff busy. So, from their point of view, it's better to have lots of people waiting to keep the smallest possible staff busy.
This is a business reality, is it not?
