Red tape makes everything worse. Incompetence makes things even more worse. I have found out through trial and error that our average turnaround time for broken equipment is roughly 2 1/2 months. And no one even notices that this is a concern! The red tape involved using checks and balances have made ordering parts a nightmare and the recent budget cuts are not helping any. Of course, high priority items get taken care of within days, but if you have something rather routine forget about it. So I have made it my duty... my purpose in life in the next year or so to make things better. Given my past knowledge of how a shop works elsewhere from five different hospitals, have given me vision to spot out all the bottlenecks in our process. Gee... sometimes I wish I was a commissioned officer because it seems like I think like one. I'm pretty sure that I have this problem solved so that our turnaround time can turn from months to weeks or even days. Challenge accepted.
Also, here is a recent video taken by me showing Vicky going across the monkey bars.
