Smoke Free Hospitals? That Took a Lot of Thought and Bravery


The day I came out of VGH after having an angioplasty (June 7, 2005) I was waiting by the emergency door for my son to pick me up.


In three minutes, I watched 3 losers with IV drips and casts and the like emerge from the bowels just long enough to light up.


Today, the hospitals announce that they will be smoke-free. Duh? What took these idiots so long?

David,

I remember in the 80s when there were smoking rooms inside Vancouver General Hospital. Progress, when it happens, is slow.
