You really need to cite sources to backup your claim regarding the other Nightingales being pretty full. I am struggling to find sources to prove they were used at all. However, you do have an extremely valid point about what was going on with the care homes. The hospitals were vacated of 'bed blockers' at the same time as the Nightingale facilities were being built, so the old people were sent to their care homes and not to a Nightingale. Exeter Nightingale going to open soon: https://www.devonlive.com/news/devon-news/exeters-nightingale-hospital-taking-shape-4247507 https://www.devonlive.com/news/devon-news/exeters-nightingal... So that one has not been pretty full. It has been absolutely empty. Bristol: https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/bristols-nightingale-hospital-remains-empty-4093580 https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/bristols-nig... Pretty Full? Nope, just opened, no patients yet. Moving to Wales: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-53082404 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-53082404 They had 17 field hospitals open up. A health economist from Swansea University said that, in hindsight, spending £166m on 46 patients was "not a good use of limited resources". Although not technically 'Nightingale' you get the idea. Northern Ireland? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-52651725 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-52651725 The Nightingale in Belfast peaked with 30 patients, before being mothballed. I suspect that every Nightingale has a similar story.
