My position is not that they were always adequately staffed, but that in my experience increasing staffing did not fix the problems as expected because the problems were rooted in more systemic issues. As I've stated elsewhere staffing may be part of the solution but rarely a panacea. Also, my stance is that fixing the systemic issues will help them do less non-patient-centered work so they can focus more on being a healthcare provider, where they are the most valuable.
