additional ftes. the issue that's been before the commission before to fill up the ftes and the whole process how does it play into that that and asking is there a discussion so that's not another year >> it plays into it many multi ways and as you've heard a you couple of times and continue to hear that's a critical priority for us because not only do we need to fill what we have now but ramp up into the transition period for the new hospital and we're going to have to be bringing on staffing to get up and running. so it's a heavy focus for the department and our h.r. director has been running sometimes, it
2:33 pm
feels he's running on a treadmill but running hard to barbara has been derivative in making this a priority so our efforts and energy are focused on how to speed up up the pipeline particularly at the san francisco general hospital and get ourselves up to where we need to be today to not fill as many shifts with needed positions and get this going. it's a challenge but we're very focuses on this as a priority for being able to be in a position where we are xhofb comfortable with our level of operations >> the other part about the call center that was the presentation about t 5 or 3 year plan this is a transitional
