    Here in NYS the Gov. Has mask mandates but not sure if she's tried vaccine. ...Yet. So I'm going to find out Monday..or later today when I do the call back for colonoscopy. I will tell them it needs to wait until all this BE ends. I want hubby there when I wake up. Or if a mistake is made.

    that was pretty much what we had to deal with. I took my dad's wristband on the days I visited her.

    luckily my mother worked with the hospital CEO's executive assistant years back (in a different industry.) Pretty sure that lady told the CEO that we were drop dead serious about suing and going to the media.

    I hope so. Between the staffing numbers being terrible these days, add covid, and there is hell to pay each work day.

    I have three full time EMT positions open and not one application in weeks...

    We started a paid FF/EMT position and only got 6 apps for 4 slots.

    It's sad.
