[MCOH-EH] COVID-19 employee contact tracing in healthcare facilities

[CHARLIE SCRIBNER]

We developed a Covid tracing team that varies from 2 people to 6 people who trace exposures for 12 hospitals.

ICP reports to the Covid tracers, who traces the files and sends employee names and contact information to the managers who complete the information and send it to employee health.

Colleagues:
In your respective institutions, which department is responsible for contact tracing of significant exposures to COVID-19 among healthcare personnel?
Is it the responsibility of employee health, infection control/hospital epidemiology or some hybrid of these services?
Thanks
Pat
