In addition, a ministerial decree from Minister of Health Paulette Lenert, which concerns hospitals, entered into force on Monday. The decree specified that hospital staff must now devote themselves mainly to urgent and acute medical activities, which cannot be deprogrammed. Patients infected with Covid-19, without succumbing to serious complications, must be hospitalised at home.The establishment of a system for sorting patients who must be hospitalised will be carried out in consultation between the hospital sector and the Department of Health. Hospital establishments are also obliged to communicate a certain number of data every day to the Department of Health.
The data in question concerns the bed occupancy rate, and the bed occupancy rate reserved for patients with Covid-19.
It will also take into account the number of new Covid-19 patients hospitalised.
Furthermore, hospitals are required to give figures for the following on a daily basis:
- the occupancy rate of intensive care beds,
- the number of ventilators available,
- the number of heart / lung devices available,
- the quantity of protective equipment available (masks, gloves, glasses, protective clothing).
- waiting times in accident and emergency services.
All providers active in the non-hospital sector must also transmit this data daily to the authorities.
