As the number of confirmed Corona 19
patients has increased by more than 2,000 in a week, a thorough response to the
re-proliferation is needed. In response, Grand Plastic Surgery is conducting
internal action guidelines and quarantine activities to prepare the best
measures for the safety of patients in the COVID-19 crisis.
Inpatients should refrain from going out
and watch out for passing on virus on inside the clinic. Because it is directly
related to the safety of patients, Grand Plastic Surgery has created and
implemented COVID-19 behavioral guidelines for all employees, including medical
staff and nurses.
All employees refrain from going out to
various gatherings outside of their working hours and work at home at least
once a week to prevent infection.
In addition, all employees and visiting
customers can enter the clinic after checking their body temperature and health
checklists are completed, and then checking for any abnormalities.
All employees and visiting customers in the
hospital are required to wear masks, and if any employees and customers show
symptoms such as fever, chills, headaches, coughs, and difficulty in breathing,
prevention of contact with other people is done first and reported to the Korea
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or health center.
CEO Rhee Sewhan, M.D, the head of Grand
Plastic Surgery, said, "We need to thoroughly prevent infections of
medical staff and all employees so that we can take responsibility for the
health of patients. We will conduct health care and occasional health checks to
ensure that we are fully prepared for the re-proliferation of COVID-19, we will
also do our best to manage the patients that visits us here in the clinic and
prevention of the virus"
COVID-19 goes through the incubation period
of about 2-14 (estimated) and has respiratory symptoms such as fever (37.5
degrees) and difficulty in coughing or breathing, as well as pneumonia, but
there are rare cases of an asymptotic infection. It is known to be infectious
even during incubation periods, when symptoms are not present, and this causes
a dark infection.
Therefore, even if there are no special
symptoms, should do best to prevent the disease.
