Today is that we all have plans for capacity, but we arent yet filling it. So thats the question we are at now. Tthe other thing i can tell you thats exciting, were looking to see beyond the capacity, in our individual hospitals, what capacity we utilize in hospitals that have vacant beds that arent staffed. And weve identified a unit, a full med surge unit and an old Critical Care unit at st. Francis to use for that purpose. The capacity of the med surge unit is about 40 and the Critical Care unit is eight. And so we looked at that unit last night and now were in the process of seeing what it would cost to staff it. In general, were looking at a model whereby the basic support services are covered by st. Francis and were looking at registries, essentially, to fill the nursing positions and then a shared model of Provider Services between dignity ucsf and ucsfg. Im happy to answer any other questions. Theres a lot of detail i havent covered by im happy to answer questions. Commissioner

As you know were dealing with, you know, a Public Health emergency in our city. And our state and country, that we have never, never had to encounter before. On behalf of the commission, i urge all d. B. I. Staff and customers to follow the instructions under Public Health officials and to do their part to prevent the spread of covid19. I applaud the department for taking steps to limit the virus spread such as increase social distancing between the customers and d. B. I. Staff, and the more frequent cleaning of commonly shared public services. Continue to Pay Attention to all of the
