Or, we could not act like complete idiots and keep more than one ER in KW.
As a UW person, I like the idea of having a hospital on University land, and the idea of moving in the direction of having a medical school, but the idea that anybody thinks one ER, especially in such a northerly location, is enough in a city of this size, is shocking.
I thought this came up earlier and it was noted that GRH will be keeping its emergency room. Maybe I'm mistaken, though, because I can't remember the source for this.
