“… In addition to the $100 million we have put forth in the last two years, we’re making an extra push at both of our hospitals to make sure we’re attracting personnel permanently to our hospitals, and while we do that, that we have the level of funding able to retain the nurses, respiratory therapists and other professionals that we have currently.”
