i knew nothing about any transportation for patients to get to cal campus the diabetic r.n. mainly sees pregnant patients. all other diabetic patients, nonpregnant patients, to see a diabetic r.n. have to go all the way to the cal campus in the richmond, which is way too far and it simply does not happen. previously, the -- there was a diabetic r.n., spanish speaking, who could see patients on the in-patient side, and then help them to transition to the outpatient side, right there at st. luke's. she only has one day a week way over at the cal campus for the outpatient teaching. she's out sick currently and there's no coverage for her and that's the only spanish-speaking r.n. she was a critical bridge for patients because you can imagine if they saw her in the hospital, they were much more likely to see her on the outpatient side right there at st. luke's. if they have to go to the c cal campus in the richmond, it doesn't happen. many of my patients are older, don't speak english. they depend on family members that may be working two jobs to get them to the californ campus it
