Sent on behalf of Infection Prevention and Control
The COVID-19 outbreak declared March 12th, 2021 on 1A is over.
In the past two weeks, no patient acquired COVID-19 as a result of their stay on the unit. We believe this success was achieved as a result of quickly implementing outbreak management protocols, COVID-19 positive and contact case management and heightened cleaning practices within the outbreak unit.
We would like to extend a special thank you to the Incident Management Team (IMT), admitting, housekeeping, clinical laboratory, ICPs and 1A management and staff for all of their hard work. Way to go team!
