As the hospitalization rate continues to increase in the Finger Lakes region, hospital and local government officials are looking for ways to free up more hospital beds.
One way that could happen, according to Bob Duffy, the president & CEO of the Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce, is by being able to move nursing home patients currently still in the hospital to a facility set up for patients infected by COVID-19.
Duffy also heads up a regional control board that helps provide data to the state on COVID-19 impacts.
“We’re working right now on trying to identify this COVID-only facility for these patients who are relatively healthy, coming out of a hospital, but based on the guidelines established by the state department of health, cannot go back to a nursing home.” Duffy said there is no facility yet identified for those patients, but officials continue to look for one. He said that staffing is also an issue.
