Journal Article
Creating a COVID-19 surge clinic to offload the emergency department
2020
Overview
Facing an emerging COVID-19 outbreak in our city, we feared that the same situation could overwhelm our ED resources [1]. [...]we sought to create an area adjacent to our existing ED where patients not requiring emergency level care could be evaluated, tested for COVID-19, and safely discharged home. CDM provided strategic planning for the Clinic's interface with the COVID-response of the health system and facilitated infection control recommendations. Transforming the ambulance bay into a functional Clinic required close and rapid collaboration with hospital leadership, the environmental services department, buildings and grounds staff, infection control experts, and a materials management team.
