Dr. Niamh Humphries:

I do not think we can speak to emergency department overcrowding or even the patient experience. Our focus is very much on the medical workforce. That is the research we have done, the research that we have been funded to do. There is definitely a need for other research to find out what it is like within the health system for a patient or for anybody else who interacts with the system but that is really not the scope of our research project.
