Below: this is how I am taking my cell phone into ICU during #COVID19

I am amazed that my touch screen & fingerprint security access works through the bag. Even the phone audio worked well

The snack sized bag is a great fit for my phone

Will make infection control easier!

2 flights in 24 hrs what pains me most about all these people unnecessarily wearing 😷 is HOW MUCH MORE THEY ARE TOUCHING THEIR FACE TO ADJUST THE MASK THEY ARE NOT USED TO WEARING.

WASH YOUR HANDS. 🧼
DONT TOUCH YOUR FACE.🙂

Pass it on.

'PJ paralysis': Why advocates are pushing to get patients out of pyjamas https://t.co/cGNpW7k26N

[Emma Jackson @dremmaj_icu]

So important - we should be asking this question about every patient we treat!

[Johns Hopkins Activity & Mobility Promotion (AMP) @HopkinsAMP]

Does the #hospital need to be the #hospital? These are the small things we can do to focus on #recovery while remembering we are a “customer service” organization.
