  • UPDATES FROM INCIDENT COMMAND:
    • COVID positive patients from non-MHP testing locations: For patients that were tested outside MHP with a positive COVID result, we highly encourage those patients to contact their primary care physician and report their positive result for monitoring and follow-up.
    • MHP COVID positive employees: We have had a total of 11 MHP employees test positive. All but one have fully recovered and returned to work. The employee who is currently out is expected to make a full recovery as well. GREAT JOB by all MHP employees by protecting yourselves, each other, and our patients!

    • MHP Foundation: Want to help? Monetary gifts are greatly accepted. Gifts can be made online at https://www.mymhp.org/gift or by contacting Angela Gill at agill@majorhospital.org. Your gift may be used to purchase personal protection equipment, disinfecting supplies, testing/medical supplies, meals and other support for staff, assistance for patients with unmet Covid-19 related needs, and more.
  • SUPPLY UPDATES:
    • We need your empty hand sanitizer bottles. We are making our own hand sanitizer and need your empty containers in order to reuse.
    • Do you have items that you would like to donate? (hand sanitizer, masks, respirators, gloves, N95, bouffant caps, or gowns). If so, please contact Angela Gill (agill@majorhospital.org)
    • Food Donations: Several community supporters have called to offer to donate food for our staff and physicians. Some are also doing it as a way to support those restaurants who are struggling to stay afloat while they are only open for carryout. We are extremely grateful for all the community support and selfless gestures. If you would like to find out more information, please contact Angela Gill (agill@majorhospital.org).
