(24,906 posts)There's lots of IT going on. The hospital issues laptops, you don't use your personal one. Lots of security IT, since hospitals have been the victims of ransomware. There's a full time staff of a handful of IT people. And they handle more than computers. The phone system, for instance. Lots of IT stuff in the lab and pharmacy, too, I would imagine. My daughter sits at a desk with three screens.
One year at the hospital Christmas party, they decided to shoot a video of each employee at the hospital quickly looking at the camera and saying Merry Christmas. I would say with the exception of the cafeteria and groundskeeping staff, about 95% of the people were pictured sitting in front of a computer. I joked that if they got rid of all those computers they could lay off half the staff.
