Comment on Are shops in the US usually this run down looking?

In the US I don’t really shop at a lot of these big name department/supermarket stores but I appreciate the deprioritization of superfluous building fashion.
But from what I understand, if you compare our hospitals to those abroad and the values are flipped on their head. We have granite marble waterfront facilities with grand fountains in the lobby and the patients and health care staff are treated like ass, we have poor outcomes that bankrupt us. But at least the place we shouldn’t want to be in look sharp.

Hmm. I wonder if our hospital architecture affects medical staff’s attitude toward patients. Perhaps hospitals should be more down to earth, to elevate the patients, like the Temple of the Human Spirit

I don’t think the medical staff is the issue, from what I can tell it’s leadership, organizational and financial priorities that are setting health care workers up for failure.

I didn’t say anything about staff. The comment was about architecture

The other commenter replied that in their opinion leadership, organizational, and financial priorities are setting health care workers up for failure. Implying those areas might be more impactful re: medical staffs attitude than the architecture of the hospital.
