We have some friends in medicine that work in hospitals. They said that nursing staffs consider Ebola to be a non issue.
I work on the electronic medical record system at a major academic medical center. My son works on the Emergency Department part of the system there, too, and my daughter is a nurse in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit in the same hospital. I can assure you they are taking it very seriously. All sorts of changes to our policies and procedures. Changes to the workflows in the EMR, in both the administrative and clinical parts of the system. Training for clinicians, lab techs, front desk staff, clerks, housekeeping, etc. It is very much in the forefront of things and has bumped many other important projects to the back burner.
