What are your recommendations on ambulatory elective surgery centers? I am an RN and ours remains open for business in Calif.! This seems irresponsible! Staff is worried about exposure. How effective can our screening process be if people can remain asymptotic for up to 14 days. Patients will have no idea if they have been exposed or not until its too late! It has been clear regarding recommendations regarding elective surgeries in hospitals but very confusing regarding ASC's. Some clarification would be great, although I have already emailed our CEO to voice my concerns that we should close, not only to protect staff and their families but also to protect the patients in our community.
