Sustaining lifesaving emergency care in the pandemic hinges on the health and mental wellbeing of frontline emergency care workers. Emergency medical staff face exhaustion, difficult triage decisions, separation from families, stigma, pain of losing patients and colleagues, in addition to their own risks of infection. With new Covid-19 Cases on the rise and the confirmed cases of crimean-congo hemorrhagic fever at Masaka Regional referral Hospital, Emergency Care Practitioners have stepped up training for emergency department staff in personal protective practices, triage and patient ambulance referrals.
Now, more than ever, your support to Global Emergency Care is critical to our Emergency Care Practitioners (ECPs) as the new cases of Covid-19 rises and the confirmation of crimean-congo hemorrhagic fever at Masaka Regional referral Hospital.
