As long as it doesn't interfere with patient care, then religious symbolism doesn't bother me at all.

Also, having a chapel, interfaith place of worship, synagogue, etc. at the hospital doesn't bother me. That could be a place for doctors/nurses/admins to duck in to pray, or for patients and families to do so, if they'd like.

As long as they're doing their job, whatever else happens, I'm cool.

Now, if they take it to the extreme, obviously, that's more of a problem.
