maleficent

My reading comprehension skills are lacking today... i'm reading this article to be that the clinic would improve walmart's employee's benefits... that the employee would get healthcare sooner.. and would be available instore...

I worked for a company once, where we had a company nurse --basically what it was there for to prevent people from coming in to work then deciding at noon, it was a beautiful day, you were going to get ill and go play golf... you were no longer allowed to go home, you had to go to the nurse... that lasted about 6 months... when people decided to take more time off..

is this also healthcare available to the public? I'd be a little concerned about the quality of the healthcare (though i suppose you can worry about that from anywhere) For minor ailments it would be helpful - but what about a minor ailment that perhaps is masquerading as something more serious...(It's not idigestion, you are having a heart attack) will there be walmart hospitals next?

In general in healthcare, I also have a concern, of what I percieve to be the over prescribing of drugs... We seem to have a pill for everything.. and having an onsite pharmacy that would make medication too accessible...
