Alternate Care Sites: Typology dictates & case studies

SARS ACS precedents

Site type: Existing Hospital

Response: Minor Adaptive Reuse

Service Model: Clustered Cohort

Examples:

Sung-Shan Military Hospital Taipei[1]
Conversion of existing non-isolation buildings to isolation wards for the treatment of SARS patients. Steps for conversion and implementation described. Nosocomial infection rate 0.6% ascribed to non-compliance with procedures.

Infrastructure steps were taken:

  1. Clear buildings of people & equipment.
  2. Fans (commercial grade 3 X 1 m blades, 65W, 60Hz) above each window.
  3. Plug doors to create negative pressure relative to the corridor (0.028-0.07 water gauge in rooms to 0.0 in corridors.)
  4. Close stairways between floors.
  5. Creating three zones at the ground floor for entry A: clean zone for changing and administration; B: Intermediate zone for removing the inner layer of PPE, showering; C: contaminated zone for removing the outer layer of PPE;
  6. Cleaning regime described.
  7. Patient transport described;
  8. Treatment of SARS patients and handling of the equipment described: Interesting: Centralize facilities to better manage and train health care workers and control nosocomial infection.
