Cansler visits Cherry


Lanier Cansler, head of the state Department of Health and Human Services, paid a visit to Cherry Hospital in Goldsboro this week to help boost the morale of the staff there.

The Goldsboro News-Argus reports that Cansler visited the troubled state psychiatric hospital on Wednesday, and told the staff that he wanted to raise morale and "recognize the positive efforts" going on there.

We all need a good cheerleader sometimes.

Good. There are a lot of good folks working there, and they probably are demoralized. Maybe this will make them feel better. At the same time, Cansler needs to continue to ride herd on the few bad apples that make the whole institution look rotten.
