Ebola treatment safety guidelines

1. Designate an onsite Ebola manager.

2. Practice, practice, practice: Make sure your healthcare workers are familiar with the new PPE guidance and have multiple opportunities to practice donning and removing equipment.

3. Carefully design areas for putting on and taking off gear.

4. Take your time.

A session in New York on safe practices for handling Ebola patients included a demonstration on the CDC’s new protocols for protective equipment.
