Hospitals are usually at 90+% at night. Then go down to Mid 80s during the day.
Every day. All year long.
this right here. most people have no idea that most ICUs run close to capacity all the time. Its expensive af to have the resources for an ICU bed (specific life support devices et al) so it makes little financial sense for hospitals to have tons of empty ICU space. Also dont forget that most hospital groups are for profit so they're extra sure to be running as close to capacity as they can to max profits.

A friend of mine with a PhD was recently attempting to cite these moronic ICU "stats" to me to cry about covid and I explained to her how the beds game works in every hospital in the western world. Her retarded response was essentially "still, though". The media takes full advantage of how uninformed everyone is and it makes me insane.
I’m in the fire dept and we assist ambulance with all medical calls. There are a number of hospitals we transport to depending on nature of call, patients preference, proximity.
We used to typically ask dispatch about hospital divert status as the medics were getting ready to roll with the patient.
It’s now a dramatic process and there are new buzz words being used. Same thing as we always used to do but it’s now with a few added layers of drama. Disgusting.
