And as difficult as it is to admit, the feedback we get from our accounts the staffing situation is not improving that much. What has happened is a year or two ago, large hospitals laid off hundreds, individual hospitals laid off hundreds of their nursing staff, OR technicians and so on. And for these people to keep bringing in a wage, many of them became traveling healthcare providers, traveling nurses they're called. And these traveling nurses financially, as long as they don't mind traveling, do very, very much better financially than they do when they were working at the hospital and driving into work every day. So now the challenge is for these hospitals to get the nursing staff to come back to the hospital at which they worked before they became traveling. And many of these traveling nurses we hear are literally driving across town. They're not getting on an airplane and traveling from New York City to St. Louis or to LA or to Phoenix. They're literally working in a very drivable distance of their area. And none of them, if that's the case, want to go back to their previous employer because they're making a, pretty amazing increase in pay, plus many of them are getting a housing stipend along with that.
