My hospital hovers around 100% year round. We were at 130% recently, that was bad. Very bad.

    Hey it could be worse, you could be at one of the psych hospitals! Poor fuckers are running at 400%+ capacity on a good day. They're so overtaxed they're turfing people from forensic beds, and anyone that isnt a critical emergent case is never getting admitted. It's so much fun!

    130%??? Are we talking like the stereotypical image of a collapsing country with patients laying in gurneys in the hallway?

    Yes. This is in a major city in Colorado, we're not a small hospital nor are we in a rural place. There's no excuse
