With the current Covid surge, we have had to combine our Medical and Pediatric ward into 1, leaving 1 ward empty, until we have enough staff to open up all the wards again. While we have the free ward, we decided to use the time and repaint the inside of the wards. We built the hospital shortly after I got here and started using it in 2010, so we haven't repainted the wards for 11 years now. Once we decided we should do it, and we took a closer look at walls - we definitely knew it was way past time to paint.
While I wish we had more staff able to work and we could be open to normal operations, I am thankful that we are using this time and making the most of it and doing something that has needed done for quite a while.
The patients seemed to be happy when we moved them in and the color hopefully brightens things up a bit.
