Designated resting time

[georgiana.simpson@health.nsw.gov.au]

Good afternoon

I am seeking clarification on whether there is a recommended standard time of resting a shared space post transporting a CoVID-19 patient between areas in a facility? I am aware the recommended time post AGP is 45 minutes to 1 hour as per the CEC CoVID-19 IP&C manual, however in the scenario a +/ve CoVID-19 patient is transferred via a shared corridor (that will be utilised for staff and other patients) from ED to ICU.

Many thanks in advance
