Well, I just got back from the ER.

Ha, ha! I have fooled you, regular readers. While the above statement is, technically, true, it implies a level of crisis which is not, in this case, accurate. I’m fine.

On July 12, the patients from Bedford County Medical Center will be transferred to a sparkling new facility which will be called Heritage Medical Center. Tomorrow, there will be a community open house at the new hospital; tonight there was a VIP reception followed by tours. So I was in the ER, and the operating room, and ICU, and what have you — but as a tourist, not a patient or concerned well-wisher.

I have to say, the new hospital looks very nice, and there are a lot of well-thought aspects to the design.
