[StBernard] Parish officials consider hospital options

[Westley Annis]

{{Why would I want a hospital close to home that is going to make me go to
it's bigger parent hospital in another parish because the 20 beds it has are
filled ?  And where were these people when we needed health care after
Katrina ? Obviously, not worried about St. Bernard !}}


Understandable that 20 beds is not enough for this region; and it will be a
regional hospital not just St Bernard Parish.  However, even with a larger
bed hospital, if the other group  cannot for whatever reasons treat the
person, wont they be shipped to Baton Rouge??

Lets see,   A hospital that will cost the parish nothing even if it is
smaller or one that will cost 60 million dollars.
        A certain hospital proposes to build with capability to make
expansions.
        Where do people go now or for the last 3 years for hospital
care certainly not in this parish.
        Oh and doesn't Dr Verrett work for OLOL group, biased? Ya
think.!!
