KGW: Grants Pass hospital putting two COVID ICU patients in a room built for one
ATRMC leaders sound the alarm on bed shortages amid delta surge.

“It’s a single patient room that we put two full sized beds in,” said Laura Magstadt, vice president of nursing at the hospital. She said its an emergency move to care for the sickest of the sick as COVID-19 causes an overflow of patients, but it’s not ideal.
