One of the consequences of the MRSA outbreak was that the surgical volume of the hospital had drastically decreased.
Every corner of the hospital was being disinfected, and all the scheduled surgeries were being postponed whenever possible. The Emergency Department did the same.
As the Emergency Department needed to liaise with the other departments, they also postponed most of their surgeries. And just like in the other department, disinfection and cleaning efforts were being ramped up in the Emergency Department.
Huo Congjun would never allow another case of MRSA to appear in an Emergency Department that had just been upgraded to an actual Emergency Medical Center.
All the medical staff were reminded again and again of the importance of washing their hands.
Protective equipment was being distributed to everyone in the hospital.
The ventilators and the beddings were washed again and again.
