Medical teams were dispatched to three hospitals where exhausted staff are weathering another surge of COVID-19 infections and deaths.
Wolcott said Adventist has been experiencing ongoing staff shortages, and California’s order that all health workers be vaccinated by Sept. 30 was not a key factor in the need for National Guard assistance. He said 90% of the hospital’s full- and part-time workers are vaccinated, and the remainder have qualifying exemptions.
Another Central Valley hospital, Kaweah Health Medical Center in Visalia, is paying $250 to $300 per hour for travel nurses to address staffing shortfalls, chief executive Gary Herbst told The Times this week. Mercy made its first request for additional staff Aug. 24 and a second, which McMurry described as a “plea for help,” Sept. 24. She said the National Guard team is expected to stay for two weeks.
