  • Description:
    Strict implementation of infection prevention and control (IPC) measures at healthcare facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic will minimize healthcare- associated transmission of the virus that causes COVID-19 among healthcare workers (HCWs) and patients and allow for ongoing provision of essential health services. This tool has been developed for healthcare facilities and public health stakeholders in non-US healthcare settings to assess a facility’s readiness to identify and safely manage patients presenting with symptoms consistent with COVID-19, and to prepare for a surge of patients with COVID-19 during periods of widespread community transmission. A template work plan to address gaps identified during the assessment is provided at the end of the tool. Publication date from document properties. healthcare-facility-readiness-assessment.pdf
