As COVID cases grow, NC hospitals are once again delaying non-emergency procedures

As COVID cases grow, NC hospitals are once again delaying non-emergency procedures Richard Stradling, The News & Observer (Raleigh, N.C.) Jan. 6 RALEIGH Last March, as hospitals in New York and Italy were being overrun with COVID-19 patients, hospitals in North Carolina canceled non-emergency surgeries and other procedures to free up beds, workers and supplies to battle the coronavirus. Now, as they struggle to keep ahead of the growing number of COVID-19 patients in the state, some North Carolina hospitals are again delaying procedures, though in a more limited and strategic way. Some hard hit hospitals have halted so-called elective surgeries or stopped scheduling future ones. Others, such as WakeMed, are reviewing their surgical schedules daily to determine which cases can be pushed back a few days or a couple of weeks to keep from filling too many beds at once, said Dr. Chris DeRienzo, the chief medical officer.

What It s Like Inside North Carolina s COVID-19 Field Hospital

A new field hospital in Lenoir will start accepting COVID-19 patients on Wednesday. It was difficult to find a quiet spot Tuesday afternoon in the paved lot next to Caldwell UNC Health Care in Lenoir as dozens of people rushed to meet a deadline. A man in a blue surgical mask sawed two-by-fours. A woman wheeled two computer carts wrapped in plastic. In the middle of all of the action stood 11 white plastic tents. Melissa Strickland pulled open the flap on one of the tents and stepped inside the state’s first COVID-19 field hospital. “You can see they’re just setting up this ward and putting all of the equipment in place,” Strickland, a spokesperson for Samaritan’s Purse, said. The Boone-based international disaster relief organization is managing the field hospital which plans to start accepting patients on Wednesday.
