What other providers are suggesting to help w #COVID19. Courtesy of many from Facebook.

1. Reduce RN trips into rooms. Move IV pumps outside of rooms and run lines inside. Foleys. Cluster med admin times. Inflatable mattresses to turn pts who don’t have to be prone. 1/10 2. Consolidate others entering room (visitors, consults, meals, registration, phlebotomy, rad techs). Better yet, have ppl already going in room bring tray/do labs. Telemedicine consults, telestroke. Use room phone to staff after pre-rounds. And decrease labs and imaging! 2/10
