"Cultural sensitivity".... priceless!

“They’re serving pasta and meatballs. [Patients are] asking for rice and vegetables and chicken," said MGH disaster nurse Jacquelyn Nally, who is the nursing director for the Inn. “I think if this were to happen again, we would consider the cultural sensitivity and the cultural differences for the population that you’re serving."

Sounds like the culture involves illegal aliens.

Free meals. You get what you get.

I stayed about 80 nights in Comfort Inn and Quality Inn properties last year (same parent company)

I knew exactly what I was going to get at the breakfast counter every morning.

I’d love to culturally appropriate fresh cooked eggs over medium and a rasher of bacon.

That’s close to me. Hope they’re watching the side exits. There’s a giant liquor store right next door.

Oh, boo hoo.

Nothing is free.

It all comes with strings attached.

At the inn, patients get a room to themselves and three meals a day, as well as in-person checkups from MGH medical providers, all at no cost. They have television and free wifi.

I guess free isn't cheap enough. The article seems so cheap and petty. Like there was nothing bad to report about the care or accommodations, so they resorted to complaining about the wrong ethnic food. Then they worry about paying for food when they leave. “I felt worried, because once I was out of the hotel, I needed to start buying my food, and paying for my stuff."

One of the assignments my kid has had here in San Diego is working at one of these "quarantine hotels". Here in SD it's a lot nicer place than most (low) Quality Inns. Many of the people they care for are folks that can't quarantine at home because they have at risk family members. She hasn't mentioned complaints, and most were just happy when she shows up to check on them and take vitals and dispense meds. It's one of their few interactions with a person.
