COVID-19 physician resources
Welcome to the CommonSpirit Health COVID-19 physician resource page. The variety of documents and links in this page have been designed to give patients and employees the tools to guide patient care and safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. We value transparency and our goal is to communicate clearly, every step of the way. We will be updating this page at least once each day, as developments unfold.
We will organize and update the information below periodically to support you in your day to day operations and help you be prepared. You’ll find the new COVID-19 daily bulletins, current COVID-19 research and training, protocols, checklists, and more.
We’re all in this together, and we thank each and every one of you for your perseverance, dedication, and compassion. You are the heart of our ministry.
