Reply to comment by koreamax in Mount Sinai investigating newborn’s death during NYC nurses' strike by CasinoMagic
I mean it seems extreme but so is the death of an infant. Yes, management absolutely needed to make arrangements so their vulnerable patients were cared for in the event of a known strike date. Maybe they could have kept a small amount of the maternity ward with their limited staff. This isn't a reach, this is managements responsibilities. Tough place to be but that was it.

It is a tough place to be in. I agree. I just don't know if the maternity ward is the top priority in terms of vulnerable patients. Had the cancer center been understaffed and someone died, people blaming management would say they should have reallocated staff there, then the maternity ward would be understaffed. I'm having trouble understanding why the concept of limited resources is so difficult to grasp for people in this thread.

Then they would need to relieve both wards. I don't understand why the concept of responsible management for people literally in charge of life and death is so hard to understand.

Seriously. Do you read my comments, or do you just wait for a response so you can say the same thing again?

I read your comments just fine. I disagree with your conclusions for the reasons stated. You haven't exactly added much to the discussion your last 3 posts.

Sounds like you're unwilling to entertain the idea that this issue might be more complex than "management bad and greedy." I provided several reasons why this goes beyond management not having the foresight to hire temporary nurses in anticipation for the strike. You just chose to immediately downvote and disregard what I said. If someone provides an argument against your points and all you can say is I'm wrong, you clearly aren't very confident in what you're saying.

I provided several solutions to the problems you posited. You are the one who comes off extremely inflexible and unwilling to consider other viewpoints in this discussion. I didn’t even downvote you, are you aware there’s more than 1 other user on Reddit? I get that being downvoted can sometimes feel unpleasant and put you on the defensive but these last two posts of yours are just a really bad look, not going to sugar coat it.
