Introduction

Welcome to CHI St. Luke’s Health - Performance Medicine's news page, where we are proud to announce the implementation of new COVID-19 prevention standards in our Humana-owned health care facilities. As the world faces unprecedented challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring the safety and well-being of our patients, staff, and community has become our top priority. In this article, we will provide you with a comprehensive overview of the measures we have taken to maintain safe and quality healthcare during these uncertain times.

Commitment to Safety

At CHI St. Luke’s Health - Performance Medicine, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of safety and care for our patients. In collaboration with Humana, a leading healthcare company, we have implemented robust COVID-19 prevention protocols across all of our health care facilities. These protocols encompass a wide range of measures designed to minimize the risk of COVID-19 transmission, ensuring that patients can receive the care they need in a safe and secure environment.

Enhanced Cleaning and Sanitization

We have intensified our cleaning and sanitization practices to eliminate any potential virus contaminants. Our facilities are regularly deep cleaned using hospital-grade disinfectants, with special attention given to frequently touched surfaces. In addition, hand sanitization stations have been placed strategically throughout our facilities to promote frequent hand hygiene among staff, patients, and visitors.

Screening and Testing

Rigorous screening and testing procedures have been implemented to identify potential COVID-19 cases promptly. Our healthcare professionals assess patients for symptoms and risk factors associated with the virus during initial screenings. Furthermore, we conduct regular COVID-19 testing among our staff to ensure early detection and prevent the spread within our facilities. By prioritizing screening and testing, we can provide comprehensive care and limit the risk of exposure.

Social Distancing and Reducing Capacity

To adhere to social distancing guidelines, we have reduced the capacity of our waiting areas and common spaces. This measure ensures adequate spacing between patients, minimizing close contact and potential virus transmission. Additionally, we have implemented telehealth services to enable patients to consult with our healthcare professionals remotely whenever possible. By leveraging technology, we can provide effective care while reducing the need for in-person visits.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

All healthcare providers, staff, and visitors are required to wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) within our facilities. This includes wearing masks, gloves, and other necessary protective gear in accordance with the latest guidelines from health authorities. By mandating the use of PPE, we can create a safer environment for everyone, reducing the risk of COVID-19 transmission.

Education and Communication

Clear and concise communication is vital in times of crisis. We have implemented robust educational initiatives to inform both our staff and patients about COVID-19 prevention measures. Through posters, pamphlets, and digital platforms, we provide essential information on hand hygiene, respiratory etiquette, and other preventive practices. By raising awareness and promoting a shared understanding, we strengthen our collective ability to combat the spread of the virus.

Continuity of Care

Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, we remain committed to providing uninterrupted and comprehensive healthcare services. Our health care professionals continue to deliver high-quality care across various specialties, ensuring that our patients receive the medical attention they require. We have implemented telemedicine options to facilitate remote consultations, allowing patients to connect with our healthcare providers from the comfort of their homes.

Conclusion

CHI St. Luke’s Health - Performance Medicine, in partnership with Humana, is dedicated to the health and well-being of our patients and community. Through the implementation of new COVID-19 prevention standards, we have taken significant measures to ensure a safe and secure healthcare environment. With enhanced cleaning protocols, rigorous screening and testing procedures, and strict adherence to social distancing guidelines, we aim to provide comprehensive care while minimizing the risk of COVID-19 transmission. Trust us to deliver the care you need in these challenging times.
