On 11 January, an 'Ebola Virus Disease Drill Exercise" was held on campus. The exercise was used to evaluate the readiness of our staff and their responses to a simulated patient with Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) detected in Ward 16S. 

​

The exercise scenario involved an EVD suspect case that occurred at a General Ward (Ward 16S), and this was role-played by a staff member. Though the suspect case was initially managed by physicians in the General Ward, it was eventually transferred to the Isolation Ward for closer inspection. 

​

The drill exercise was well executed by the respective teams that were involved, and the staff were well-prepared in managing the simulated EVD case as a whole. Kudos to our JHC staff for their great teamwork!
