So it could be health care worker or just about any other kind of staffer that a mid-sized company might have.

The main DHMC facility has just under 400 beds, and there have to be thousands of people moving through there on any given day.

Plus, there are two DHMC satellite locations in the region. More health care workers than admin/staffers.

The employee's stupidity aside, it's a fantastic facility.
