Hospitals expect to be able to run off paper for hours.

If anything, the hospitals are much more reasonable in terms of expectations of uptime than people's expectations of cat video avaliability.

We used to get 4 hour downtime windows to completely redo switch stacks for every switch closet in a location over a single week for example.
