JCAHO review is a bare minimum for certification. It is not all encompassing by any means. That certification doesn't make a hospital a "good" hospital by any means, especially when Phoebe, like a lot of other hospitals, clean up their act for JCAHO inspectors, then go right back to business as usual once the whole thing is over.
Yes, I have watched it happen at Phoebe back when I worked there. After I resigned, I swore I would never go back...and I won't.
No, but hearing something from him about how to prevent them sure would be a nice change of pace. Maybe something about what's being done to stop this string of failures?>
I still have yet to be given a good reason why WG&L should be so autonomous. Not one. Yet their employees will lobby commissioners and the mayor, telling them what a disaster it would be if the commission took them over, yet no one has said WHY.
Sure...except that GDOT's management was compared to Enron's with regard to fiscal mismanagement. Maybe folks would have been more willing to listen to cries of poverty regarding our transportation system if we could trust the fools handling the money.

Oddly enough, the only business I hear of Aaron Blair visiting on anything approaching a routine basis is Verge...which his wife owns.
A lot of downtown businesses that where there a year ago are gone, but not a word from Blair about any of it.
