The Salisbury Hospital

For the past week or so I have been going to the hospital in Salisbury to visit someone. The place is a pile of shit with the construction going on and it has had construction going on for the last forty years. Just to rub it in they have signs posted that says "a temporary inconvenience for permanent improvements". What a bureaucratic line of bullshit, there is no temporary to it and I doubt it is going to be improved. It sounds like something the town should post on Foskey Lane, another place that will never be done with construction road cuts.

Comments:
Imagine how much fun it is being a nurse at the hospital. First you have to park in East Hell because all of the construction workers and minimum wage nursing assistants have taken spaces that are allotted to patients and physicians on call. After you brave the construction site and don't get mowed down by equipment you get to perform your stressful undervalued job of 2-3 people since no one is ever replaced when they are lucky enough to leave. Meanwhile the middle mangers and upper administration stroll around attending numerous meetings taking leisurely lunch hours. No wonder there is a nursing shortage. WE have to pay for our health insurance and now they want to give health insurance to a Salisbury City Council person?
 
That's nothing!

The Hospital used to get 2,000 patients a year for heart surgery from Dover and last year they got 18 total.

They're forgotten where they came from and the Hospital is failing in a big way. The public just isn't aware of it.

Looks like thre next PG Hospital to me.
 
So we know there is a problem,but what is the answer? Am I correct that this is a private entity? If so, who owns PRMC?
 
You can always go to Seaford, they never work on that place.
 
I'm no big fan of surgery, but when I had to have some about a year ago, it was done at Dorchester Gen. in Cambridge, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Even the janitor was friendly and extremely helpful.
If I had to have more surgery, I'd go back there in a minute.
