I heard from my local nurses union that with all these goals being set for health care, people have to reallocate dollars. CEOs of hospitals are doing this. You talk about the shortage of nurses. All these nurses who are eager to work are being given part-time positions rather than full-time ones. With respect to human resources, how would it alleviate the situation if we put more funds into full-time than part-time? In some cases, when you add up the overtime, we're paying more for part-time.
