Between the executive orders from Governor Eric Holcomb, the rising number of local COVID cases and the possibility of getting a vaccine, Daviess Community Hospital officials are scrambling to try and keep up. Holcombâs latest order will once again force local hospitals to not do any elective surgeries from Dec. 16 to Jan. 3, 2021. The order comes as Holcomb attempts to keep hospital resources available. âIn order to preserve hospital bed and staffing capacity for the period, licensed hospitals are directed to postpone, or reschedule non-emergent procedures which are unlikely to result in a significant risk to a patientâs acute condition or long-term outcome,â the governorâs order stated.
