URGENT MESSAGE REQUIRING ACTION Fraser Health has been reviewing the ordering patterns and appropriate usage of N95 masks across the organization due to large numbers of N95 respirators being ordered from stores. Where ever possible, visitors and other non-essential personnel should not be in the room when performing AGMP. In addition, visitation should be restricted to 1 – 2 people at a time. Beginning today, please offer visitors a regular procedure mask rather than the N95 respirators. If they prefer, visitors can purchase and use their own N95 respirators. |
