Mt. Sinai

I think I need to take a moment and describe what I believe to be some of the best hospital care available. Caren and I have been so impressed by the way things are done down here. From the moment we walked in on Thursday, we were aware that there was a "system" in place. They have their way of doing things and you can tell it's based on best practice assessments, not anecdote and conjecture.

The clinical care has been fantastic. Please don't misconstrue my earlier musing about the Residents as criticism, they are actually doing a fine job and if they had all the answers, they wouldn't need to be at this institution of higher learning. They are definitely fun to watch though! It's amazing how much stereotypical behavior captured by the latest TV dramas (and comedies) is accurate.

With the exception of some occasional linens and whatnot, we really haven't experienced long waits for anything we really needed. The staff has been attentive, caring and for the most part, really good at what they do.

I know none of them will ever read this, but they have my thanks for everything they've done so far. I can only hope that I feel the same way exiting the hospital as I have the entire stay.
