If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead

Strangely enough I had to ask myself whether or not it was satire. |

Back in the dim mists of time, we ran an almost 200 bed hospital, with 25 bassinets in the nursery, with an administrator, assistant administrator, four people in HR and all other managers were a department head...DON, Pharmacy,Lab, Maintenance, Dietary, etc. Census was usually 70% or better and we had over 100,000 patient events(visits) in our ED and clinics. But the government has helped make folks much more efficient and cut the paperwork so much, we went out of business. |

And another thing... When I first got into the biz, most department managers and administrators were guys and gals who had worked their way up from the rank and file. When they spoke about a process, it was because they knew about the work involved. Now, we have MBAs and bean-counters that couldn't manage a two-car funeral procession, telling people how to do a job that the MBA has only read about in a book. Secondly, stuff is constantly changing. Not the technology, you expect that. No, the ever changing rules, regs and paperwork. An immense amount of effort is spent in trying to adhere to the Joint flavor of the year or the whims of Washington. |
