In Devastated Galveston, a Hospital Is on Hold

From this article:
Three days after Hurricane Ike devastated this island community, along with much of the Texas Gulf Coast, the teaching hospital that has survived hurricanes for more than a century was once again getting back on its feet. . . . Campus officials say it could be a month or more before the hospital resumes regular operations and is able to bring all of its students and residents back. In the meantime, administrators are working on temporary placements for 557 medical residents and about 2,400 medical, nursing, allied-health, and graduate students. The hospital has about 12,000 employees, 8,000 of whom work in Galveston.
