Pre Katrina, New Orleans was over bedded. While that is not the case now, the private hospitals are not very effective at caring for the city's poor and there was no better training hospital in the country for nurses and physicians than Charity, particularly the trauma program. And, Charity's Clinic system may have been beaucratic, but it was very effective in caring for NO's indigent. If there ever was a city that needed a charity hospital, it is NO. Not building a hospital because the facility needs greater accountability, better managment, and fiscal responsibility than Big Charity is treating the problem not the cause! Burt, popping off about what happened at Charity during Karina simply tells me you know nothing of which you speak. If you spent 15 minutes with any clinician at Tulane, the VA, Charity, or Memorial during Katrina and you would not show the complete and utter disrespect you typed above. - Focused on Healthcare Mon, 13 Jun 2011 13:39:54 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8471-vitter-kennedy-tucker-offer-new-plan-for-no-medical-center#comment-18625 written by burt , June 11, 2011 The old charity hospital was a disgraceful facility which you would not let your worst enemy be treated at becuase the union staff could care less. Just ask the elderly charity patients who were deserted in their beds during Katrina. Even VITTERS WHORES NEED A hospital so they can be treated for all the diseases that they'll contract from VITTER. - LNRIC Sat, 11 Jun 2011 17:57:08 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8471-vitter-kennedy-tucker-offer-new-plan-for-no-medical-center#comment-18623 The ignorance and hatred spread by the radical leftists on this website is amazing. There is NO NEED for any more New Billion dollar hospital in New Orleans and NO NEED to spend a billion dollars for a LSU pet project called the charity care system which has been a financial and healthcare disaster. The old charity hospital was a disgraceful facility which you would not let your worst enemy be treated at becuase the union staff could care less. Just ask the elderly charity patients who were deserted in their beds during Katrina. The New Orlean metro area lost over 300,000 people and the overall metro area population shifted north and east towards Baton Rouge.The area has to way too many hospital beds currently so why are we building another state and federal financial black hole in downtown in an awful part of downtown ? Its time we STOP the Landrieu machine and the state and federal unions machine from cooking up these make work unions projects and having the taxpayers stuck with the BILLS. - burt Sat, 11 Jun 2011 09:33:17 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8471-vitter-kennedy-tucker-offer-new-plan-for-no-medical-center#comment-18610 Amen LNRIC. Bitter Vitter is trying to keep all the talk off of him and sex. He has to change the headline. What a bafoon. All three of them.... I guess we should not build the hospital and just use the money so they can bus everyone to md anderson in houston. That way they will save a load of money. And we will be nurturing a real medical corridor, just not our own................give me a break. - drdfrenchman Fri, 10 Jun 2011 13:25:48 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8471-vitter-kennedy-tucker-offer-new-plan-for-no-medical-center#comment-18604 Order Vitter a prostitute and he will drop his plans to deny healthcare to the middle class and the poor. This is a man who is a blyte on the body politic. Vitter does not need to use the charity hospital system to cure the venerial diseases that he contracts from his use of prostitute whores. - LNRIC Fri, 10 Jun 2011 12:24:05 +0100
