Prepping for patients

Article Abstract:

Lexington, NE's Tri-County Area Hospital had a new Iowa Beef Processors plant set to open in the area and the hospital wanted to be prepared for patients. Hospital administrator Calvin Hiner flew to the Garden City, KS, plant and discovered a young workforce. The hospital increased its prenatal care staff and its physical therapy programs because of the prevalence of repetitive motion injuries for the company's workforce.
