About this video

An administrator, with Timothy assisting, celebrates replacing local emergency physicians who served for decades with a national staffing company, recruiting replacements by mass text message and even a radio contest. Flanary portrays him dismissing opposition from the community, clinicians, and Oregon’s governor, rigging hospital bylaws to outvote everyone, and proposing to replace all physicians with short-term locums who have never been to the state. The sketch satirizes hospital leadership treating continuity and local trust as worthless.

Key takeaways

  • Flanary portrays leadership as preferring a national staffing firm over trusted physicians with decades of local service
  • Recruiting by mass text and radio contest is his satire of how locum staffing is filled in the sketch
  • The administrator character is shown overriding community, staff, and even gubernatorial opposition, in the scene
  • Locum impermanence is presented, through that character, as a feature rather than a problem
