I’m a previously certified CPC that’s currently going through the TRB process at an enroute facility.

There's a possibility we are going to need to hardship to a lower elevation (newborn is not acclimating and has to be on oxygen here). What are the considerations for facilities when hardshipping to a new area. If available, do they try to keep it close to current level? Thinking Houston because...

Does a facility’s staffing level (current/projected) have an effect on whether or not they can accept a hardship? Such as, if a facility is currently at 100% staffing, are they still able to accept an inbound hardship? If there is a particular staffing percentage that is considered the...
