While the hospital bed was tight due to the spread of new coronavirus infection, the inside of the hotel that accepts mildly infected people from 30 days was opened in Kumagaya city, Saitama prefecture.
In Saitama prefecture, we could not keep up with beds for medical institutions, and this month there were cases where the condition suddenly changed while waiting for home and then disappeared.In the prefecture, the policy is to have patients with mild illness receive medical treatment temporarily at the hotel instead of at home. Is changing.
Under such circumstances, the "Hotel Heritage" in Kumagaya City began accepting people with mild or asymptomatic symptoms from the 30th, and the inside was opened to the public.
There are two hotels, one of which 151 rooms are rented by Saitama prefecture, and in order to prevent the spread of infection, it is necessary to separate the floor for medical treatment from the floor where the staff of the prefecture work.
Nursing staff and prefecture staff are stationed 24 hours a day, and we are preparing medical equipment for measuring oxygen levels in the blood to prepare for sudden changes in the patient's condition.
Saitama Prefecture has already secured 415 rooms, including hotels in Saitama city, and is aiming to secure 1,000 rooms by the 6th of next month.
