How is Public Health Responding-Public Health Nursing Response

As we respond to COVID-19, we continue to work with SCAT-Public Health Department to protect the health and safety of all the residents.

When an individual is tested with COVID-19, we ask the patient and family members to stay at home (quarantine). While the patient is quarantined and waits for the results of the test:

  1. Public Health Nursing will contact the patient by telephone to interview the patient.
  2. Public Health will thoroughly interview the patient’s history by walking through every moment and ask questions about who lives in the household, who had contact with the patient, for how long, and what were the circumstances.
  3. If need, the Public Health Nurse will follow up with a home visit.
  4. When the results are received, the patient will be contacted by SCAHC or the Public Health Nursing department.
  5. At any time, the patient can call the Nurse Hotline 1-833-361-9550.

Exposure Guidance for Providers and Healthcare Workers

Healthcare Workers who are exposed to a suspected or confirmed cases of COVID-19 should monitor themselves for symptoms (fever and cough). Exposed Healthcare Workers can continue to work as long as they are asymptomatic, but will need to contact the Employee Health Nurse. Please contact your Employee Health Nurse Kim Squire x7358 if you have questions

Arizona COVID-19 Response Information

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is closely monitoring an outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a novel (new) Coronavirus first identified in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. Chinese authorities identified the new Coronavirus, which has resulted in thousands of confirmed cases in China, including cases outside Wuhan City. (The virus is believed to have contributed to the deaths of approximately 2% of those infected.)

The spread of COVID-19 between people has generally occurred between close contacts primarily by respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes (in the way that  influenza and other respiratory pathogens spread). It’s important to note that the ease with which  a virus spreads person-to-person can vary. Some viruses are highly contagious (like measles), while other viruses are less so. While CDC considers this is a very serious public health threat, based on current information, the immediate health risk from COVID-19 to the general American public is considered low at this time.

For more information about Coronaviruses please see Coronavirus website.

For the most up-to-date information on the outbreak, please visit the CDC’s COVID-19 website.
