I have your info. I have just left Tucson General. The hospital is down to simple routine and emergency admissions only, no trauma/specialty services. Med-surg is basically a SNF. The ICU has only 4 beds and med/surg has 20 possible beds.

There is so much more to tell, but I would not like to voice it in an open forum. Please e-mail me if you have any other concerns or questions.
