He is going into his fourth year and it is time he would believe he can stand over his policies and decisions. There are serious difficulties in the acute hospital setting. It is difficult to get people out of hospitals. Step-down facilities are not available. We are having difficulty trying to transfer people from the acute hospital setting to step-down and then home. That is happening day in day out in hospitals across the country and this adds to the difficulties at the front end in emergency departments.
