The following will elaborate on how to prevent and control the epidemic from four aspects.

1. Strengthen admission review
Admission review is an important part of epidemic prevention and control. First of all, the hospital should strengthen the examination of patients' admission applications, require patients to provide relevant health certificates and itinerary, and carry out special examination on patients from high epidemic areas.
Secondly, the hospital should set up isolation areas to isolate and observe patients with suspected symptoms, and conduct nucleic acid testing in a timely manner. Patients with positive nucleic acid test results should be transferred to designated hospitals for diagnosis and treatment immediately.
Finally, the hospital should strengthen the admission review of medical staff and caregivers to ensure that outsiders will not bring viruses. At the same time, the hospital also needs to strengthen visitor management and limit the number and time of caregivers.
2. Strengthen the cleaning and disinfection of hospital environment
The cleaning and disinfection of hospital environment is an important link to prevent the spread of epidemic. The hospital should strengthen the cleaning and disinfection of public areas, including the frequency and scope of disinfection in wards, operating rooms, outpatient clinics and other places.
The hospital should also strengthen the cleaning and disinfection of medical equipment to ensure the safe use of medical equipment. At the same time, the hospital should improve the personal hygiene awareness of medical staff, strengthen the training of hand hygiene and wearing protective equipment, and ensure that medical staff themselves will not become a vector of virus transmission.
In addition, hospitals should strengthen the use of air purifiers to keep the indoor air fresh and reduce the spread of viruses in the air.
3. Strengthen the prevention and control of patient visits
The hospital should strengthen the prevention and control management of patient visits and take the following measures:
First, the hospital should designate an independent fever clinic to conduct isolation observation and nucleic acid testing for patients with abnormal temperature.
Secondly, the hospital should do a good job in the management of appointment registration, control the number of patients and avoid crowd gathering. At the same time, we should encourage patients to go to different peak visits and reduce staff turnover.
Finally, the hospital should strengthen ventilation in the treatment area to ensure the safety of patients and medical staff. Set up disinfectant, mask and other protective articles in the treatment area to remind patients and caregivers to do a good job in personal protection.
4. Strengthen the training and protection of medical staff
Medical staff is an important force in preventing and controlling the epidemic situation, and hospitals should strengthen the training and protection of medical staff.
First of all, the hospital should strengthen the epidemic knowledge training for medical staff to improve their awareness of and ability to respond to COVID-19.
Secondly, hospitals should be equipped with sufficient protective materials, including masks, protective clothing, goggles, etc. The hospital should ensure that medical staff wear and use protective materials correctly to avoid cross infection.
Finally, the hospital should regularly organize drills and assessments to improve the ability of medical staff to cope with the epidemic.
Summary
