Remember that your two priorities on the MTU are patient care and your education. Have fun!

  • APL Memo- Calgary Zone Outpatient Lab Closures in Acute Sites
    MEMORANDUM DATE: April 15, 2020 TO: All Calgary Zone Clinical Trial and Research Study Teams FROM: Alberta Precision Laboratories RE: Urban Hospital Outpatient Labs KEY MESSAGES: Effective Thursday, April 16 the outpatient labs located at Alberta Children’s Hospital (ACH), Peter Lougheed Centre (PLC), Rockyview General Hospital (RGH) and South Health Campus (SHC) will be closed. Patients will be re-directed to community Patient Service Centres. Staff will be deployed as appropriate. The safety of vulnerable patient populations and staff in the urban hospitals is a priority as we respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Closing outpatient laboratory collections within urban acute care sites will reduce the number of individuals entering these facilities, limiting the risk of COVID-19 transmission. An APL memo was distributed on March 25th, 2020 strongly recommending physicians cease ordering routine or non- essential lab work. This has already reduced volumes of patients attending outpatient collection locations. The postponement of elective surgery combined with the closure of most ambulatory clinics has already resulted in a decreased need for outpatient lab service. Re-directing lab collections for ambulatory and outpatients to community PSCs will limit traffic into acute care sites and allow for more appropriate physical distancing. ACTION REQUIRED AND COLLECTION PROCESS: Patients who continue to attend remaining ambulatory clinics at the hospital will have their urgent laboratory blood work collected by the onsite phlebotomy team. Tom Baker Cancer Centre patients will continue to receive service in the Special Services Building (SSB) outpatient lab at Foothills Medical Center (FMC) which will remain open. Clinical Trial and Research Study Patients who require KIT/ Research collections originally collected from an Urban Hospital Outpatient Lab will be redirected to go to the SSB Outpatient Lab located at the FMC.

AHS has undertaken upgrades of their standby emergency diesel generators at three of the major health care facilities in Calgary for AHS’s own use within its facilities. 3. AHS indicated that the need for reliable electricity sources is paramount for health care facilities. Emergency standby generators are a requirement for hospitals as support for a second contingency outage. The emergency standby generators are sized to ensure that all critical loads can be maintained in the event of a prolonged electrical service outage.
