COVID-19: Guidance
COVID-19 Document Archive
This document archive holds the special guidance sent by our department over the course of the Novel Coronavirus, COVID-19.
The best place to find the most up-to-date information is at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and/or the Georgia Department of Public Health websites: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html and https://dph.georgia.gov/novelcoronavirus.
On these sites, you will find helpful information for your teams and partners including guidance targeted for clinicians, public safety, and prevention measures, among others. These sites will be the primary mechanism to share up-to-date information; I encourage you to check them routinely.
Providers who are in need of decontamination assistance from the National Guard should go to the Georgia Emergency Management website at GEMA - Find A Location. Once at that website, choose the county where the facility in need of decontamination is located and contact the Emergency Management Director with your request.
