Preparing for Hospitalization During COVID-19 Pandemic: A Checklist for People with Disabilities – April 23, 2020
During the COVID-19 pandemic you should do everything you can to stay out of a hospital, but if you have no choice, BE PREPARED for business not as usual! The normal hospital standards of practice may not be followed due to limited staff, many more patients than usual, and not enough equipment and supplies. It may be much more difficult to ensure your right to medical care is honored.
The American Association on Health and Disability (AAHD) is conducting a confidential, real-time online assessment of the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on health care and health care access among persons with a range of disabilities.
