  • Perhaps 16 months ago, but it is currently correctly positioned. In my opinion, the administration for this hospital is terrible. While I have many reasons for believing this, here are three that are relatively easy to check: 1. The sign for the emergency room is blocked by unnecessary architecture. A waste of money and potentially fatal (though unlikely in any given emergency situation as most residents likely know where the emergency entrance is). 2. With the babyboomers becoming seniors, the space allotted for occupational therapy (they often deal with people who've had strokes, a common ailment for the elderly) has actually DIMINISHED with the new, expanded buildings. This is ridiculous. 3. It's much more difficult to find parking. One person I know who works there has to walk ten minutes from her parking spot to reach the hospital. This is ridiculous. It was far worse while they were still building the place.
