Hospitalization surge forces healthcare leaders to move patients and pivot employees

Hospitalization surge forces healthcare leaders to move patients and pivot employees Unmute PEORIA (WEEK) - Local intensive care bed availability is at its lowest point so far this year, and hospital leaders say it is forcing them to send patients elsewhere. As of Tuesday morning, patients filled 97% of ICU beds at OSF Saint Francis Medical Center in Peoria, and OSF chief operating officer Dr. Michael Cruz says five to six of their hospitals are still above 90% capacity. As a result, hospitals are forced to move patients and pivot employee responsibilities. Sometimes we have to move patients who might ve originated from one town - who want to stay in town and normally would - but we can t because there is no one or no place for them to be cared for there, Cruz said. Is it what a patient would prefer? No. And yet, in these circumstances, that s what were left dealing with at this time.
