Great point Sally (and you would know having worked there). I would expect that the wait to get admitted would also be less since there will be some addition upstairs as well. But at least there should be ER rooms available with the expansion.
BTW: ER times are posted here:

But take these with a grain of salt - they are rolling averages to see somebody (med professional) - you will still face triage priority placement if your condition is not emergent.
