Its only been thirty five years since the Emergency Room at Nassau University Medical Center has been upgraded. Beds are shoved together, inmates are often right next to nursing home patients and visitors are forced to enter a "corn maze" of halls and corridors before finding their loved ones. You think its time for an upgrade in the emergency room?

Well, Nassau County, congratulations on the new emergency room-it only took 35 years.
