The Queen Elizabeth Hospital is stepping up its fight in the protection of staff and patients in the fight against COVID-19.
As the number of COVID-19 cases rise island-wide, with more patients presenting to the hospital for care, and with community contact being the principal cause of cases among QEH staff having grown from 10 to 19 in a staffing complement of 2,500, the Queen Elizabeth Hospital is increasing measures to keep staff safe and protect patients.
This assurance was given by Executive Director of the QEH, Juliette Bynoe-Sutherland, to all levels of staff in the hospital in a Weekly Report issued on February 5.
