Are Valley Health Systems staff shortages self-inflicted? Why won't the Winchester Star and NVDaily "print" this?


For the record, I submitted this editorial to the Winchester Star during the week of November 14th and submitted on Sunday, November 20th and again Tuesday, November 22nd. I submitted to NVDaily on Sunday November 20th as well. Why is the following editorial not going to print???



The Winchester Star did a story back on October 6, 2022 headlined, "Valley Health feeling economic pinch from pandemic, inflation".

It was stated that Valley Health has about 800 job vacancies, whether full- or part-time, and most of them are in Winchester and the counties of Clarke, Frederick, Page, Shenandoah and Warren.

“Right now we’re making up for that shortfall by either asking people to work overtime, finding temporary agency [professionals] or combining units and services so that we can try to do more with less,” Valley Health Systems President/CEO Mark Nantz said.

"As of February 2020, Valley Health was averaging about $800,000 per month in premium pay", Nantz said. "Now it’s averaging $3 million a month."

Who made the decision that employees had to take the vaccines in order to keep their job or was it really about getting $126 million through the assistance programs such as the federal CARES Act, the Virginia Department of Medical Assistance Services and the Federal Emergency Management Agency?

Were Valley Health Systems and local doctors allowed to really practice medicine and treating patients utilizing all available information and protocols (such as FLCCC Alliance) or were they hamstrung to only follow NIH and FDA guidelines?

The FDA stated the only way an emergency order of any vaccine could get approval was that there could not be any known remedy/treatment on the market for COVID.

Does this explain why Ivermectin developed from a natural base plant, called the ‘Wonder drug’ due to its versatility, safety and impact from Japan that was discovered in 1978 and further developed for human treatment around 1987 and Hydroxychloroquine developed back in 1955 were quickly suppressed?

"Ivermectin proved to be even more of a ‘Wonder drug’ in human health, improving the nutrition, general health and wellbeing of billions of people worldwide ever since it was first used to treat Onchocerciasis in humans in 1988." In 1987, Merck indicated a price of $3 per tablet, meaning that a treatment dose would cost $6, well beyond an affordable amount for those most in need.

In 2015, Ivermectin was awarded the Nobel Prize for treatments of infectious diseases, a multifaceted drug deployed against some of the world's most devastating tropical diseases.

Readers are encouraged to read the medical white papers on Ivermectin:

Now one must ask, what drug would you feel more comfortable with, a vaccine that got an emergency order approved by the FDA and granted immunity to Big Pharma or drugs that have been on the market for human use since 1955 and 1988?

Furthermore, have you seen the video featuring Winchester’s mayor David Smith telling folks to get vaccinated?

Does he have a medical degree that qualifies him to be in a position to be giving out medical advice to the local community? Maybe one would feel better about getting medical advice for the vaccine from the following world wide known doctors:

Dr. Robert Malone
 
Dr. Peter McCullough
 
Dr. Joseph Mercola

 


Something to ponder, Big Pharma was granted legal immunity but what about the employers, businesses and institutions that enforced the mandate? How would they be granted legal immunity?

To close, is it not all about dollars and cents and what makes the most sense? Within the last five years, what happened to common sense?

Some facts about VHS:
Are you aware of Winchester Medical Center’s profits since Y2K? I emailed Mark Nantz back in February requesting profits/loss figures for 2013, 2014 and 2017. I just emailed his secretary this past week requesting the information and stating I believe they did not meet the deadline of 30 days to respond with the information.

2000 $11,917,127
2001 $ 4,262,944
2002 $25,868,766

Valley Health System was not very discreet about becoming the monopoly of health care within our regional community in buying up all smaller regional hospitals and building approx $35 million dollar brand new buildings. This does not include the brand new $100 million Warren Memorial hospital that opened up in June of 2021. Side note, Valley Health purchased about 150 acres off Leach Run Parkway in 2008 for $2.6 million. Of that land, the hospital may cover about 25 acres. The land is currently zoned agriculture and open-space preservation and would have to be rezoned before construction.

Why was Valley Health against the birth of the Winchester Eye Surgery Clinic? I am perplexed with the following statement from the March 2006 Quad State Business Journal:

"Last year, the Winchester Eye Surgery Clinic applied to the Virginia Department of Health for a certificate of public need (COPN). Despite receiving a letter of opposition from Winchester Medical Center, which has its own Surgi-Center, at which cataract removals are performed, the state agency granted the COPN on December 22, 2006."

'We opposed it because it was a duplication of the services we provide,' said Larry Van Hoose, vice president for Valley Health. 'Duplication tends to drive health care costs up.'"



I always thought that competition drives prices lower and a monopoly drives the prices up. Now I ask you all, does Valley Health Systems have duplication of their services or not within the regional community? So are their rising costs self-inflicted too?


Other side notes:
I am hearing that VHS is hiring temp nurses (most likely traveling nurses) that are not required to be vaxxed but are paying them basically double the pay. VHS’s increase of premium pay went from approx $800,000 a month to $3 million, so that would be self-inflicted too, would it not?
