Everybody must be controlled!!

"Everyday our staff tell patients who use tobacco to quit who are overweight to begin a diet and exercise program," said Bill Rietscha, Vice President of Facilities for Spectrum Health.

Check out the hospital "Dieticians" next time your forced to be in one. I have yet to see one that really looked healthy.

Our local hospital here in upstate NY just began a similar program, NO SMOKING ON HOSPITAL GROUNDS, PERIOD!
