12月末和1月,全美医院的等候时间不断上升,原因是季节性疾病、人员短缺和假日工作人员配置挑战导致患者数量增加。 Hospital wait times across the U.S. are rising during late December and January, driven by increased patient volume from seasonal illnesses, staffing shortages, and holiday staffing challenges. 急诊部门在治疗方面出现更长时间的延误,有些病人的等待时间超过了建议的等待时间。 Emergency departments are experiencing longer delays for treatment, with some patients waiting hours beyond recommended wait times. 卫生官员将这一趋势归因于流感季节、节假日旅行和冬季数月医院工作人员可用率下降等综合因素。 Health officials attribute the trend to a combination of flu season, holiday travel, and reduced hospital staff availability during the winter months.
