That's the thing, all the existing ERs in K-W will be closing, this will be the only hospital with emergent care. Thus its location is extremely crucial.
Is there a cite for this? I have a vague recollection that we all thought this, then somebody said that at least some of the existing ones will remain open. But I don’t remember where any of this information ultimately comes from.
If true, it’s an appalling and idiotic planning failure. We’re a city easily big enough to need multiple emergency departments, both for accessibility and for disaster resilience (“don’t put all your eggs in one basket”).
