i am glad that the community got together to help out the hospital after that spill. and you guys are saying that the new hospital is not needed yet if there was to be a really bad flu going around and we all had to go to the hospital there would be no room. i think its about time the hospital gets a new facility. they are also getting new equipment which is also needed. so instead of talking bad about the government and the new hospital be thankful because you never know when you will need to visit the hospital to get an xray or go see a family member’s new baby.

Well I suggest you go on google and find out how you can prevent COOP disease and then your insurance company wouldn’t have to waste money unnecessarily. As you know, taking care of yourself and preventing diseases, will help keep our health insurance premiums down. Good bye and enjoy the rest of your day

Would I really Jackie? With the cost of treatment being considerably lower overseas and the quality of treatment being considerably higher overseas would my “a$$” be complaining? My insurance covered me for my treatment overseas although according to the BHB I could have been treated in Bermuda. I was then informed by my general practitioner that if I had contracted COOP disease while in Bermuda instead of South Carolina like I did 2 years ago I would now be dead. You can take that with a grain of salt.

What they haven’t told you is that it is gonna be a new wing to the hospital the old one will still be operational after the new building is finished.

The redevelopment of the hospital is not an unnecessary project! If nothing was done to rebuild it and let it stay as is, then your a$$ would be complaining about that too…

No if you’ve read my comments previously you’ll see I do not find the negative in every story. Due to personal experiences I have lost all hope in the staff of the BHB, as have many Bermudians, and do not see any sense in throwing millions of OUR dollars on an unnecessary project!

Then please, on this “fiscally responsible” island, explain to me the need for a new hospital at a cost of “x” million dollars when this country is in debt up to its neck. There have been reports of a 12 year old dying from influenza due to a lack of medication in the KEMH pharmacy. There have also been reports of unnecessary death directly caused by staff at the hospital that cause a stir among the public for 3 days then, once again, fall on deaf ears. The problem isn’t with the physical structure, it lies with the people who fill it!

On behalf of the Queen and all of the people of Bermuda, we are sorry for not living up to your perfect standards and actually having an accident. Shame on the hospital right? You could have at least waited until the OSHA report was done…….gee. http://Www.Nitpickingbermudian.com

We’re spending how much for a new hospital when we can’t run the old one properly?!
