When making a comment about a life threating situation such as closing a hospital, put yourself in that boat before you sink it. Think about the workers that's losing their jobs and benefits they work their ass off day and night to take care of the ill, disabled, elderly and forgotten ones that come in and out the door. Some of these people work all their lives taking care of people and will not be able to face the job market because of age or education.Hospitals are run by People of Power and Authority, the Government is run by the same they are the ones that make the money not the workers. As a worker in a hospital you are faced with lots of different problems such as abuse, violence, disrespect, racism from staff, visitor and patients. Working in a hospital is a job thats very unique from many others, .Patient care can't be transferred to any other Country or State.Hospitals and Nursing Homes is not where you make people rich or poor,it's where you save lives and care for those that need caring that can't or wont be given the caring at home. Face it, all these cuts is because of a costly war, it's a global POLITICS and we are a part of it.
