Mr. Adams said the city would direct hospitals to keep those patients until they are stable and to discharge them only when there is a workable plan in place to connect them to ongoing care.
Alternatively, "immediately". Its just an excuse to move people from place A to place B, so folks in place A can feel like "someone is doing something". Dump a dozen homeless people into an ER and wipe your hands, making it someone else's problem. Then, when the ER doesn't know what to do with them, they're kicked out and left to wander a different set of streets.
