面向企业的 COVID-19 资源

Operating your business safely during a pandemic

Conducting business activities amid the COVID-19 pandemic takes careful planning to ensure employees and customers are safe and business goals are met. Mayo Clinic experts have carefully developed strategies and protocols focused on mitigating COVID-19 within the health care setting, where halting transmission is critical. They are also currently tailoring those strategies to support and advise businesses in settings outside of health care.

Mayo Clinic has refined its expertise and may offer advisory services in the following areas, which may be relevant to your business:

  • Cleaning and facilities management. Mayo Clinic experts developed cleaning protocols and training for 700 housekeepers and custodians to service 37,500 rooms daily. Experts also apply various technologies, such as ultraviolet robotics, which reduced hospital-acquired infections by 30%.
  • Social distancing and use of PPE. The ability for visitors and staff to move safely around campus is essential for most businesses. At Mayo Clinic, experts analyzed physical environments, including conference rooms, elevators and other shared spaces, to develop effective social distancing measures and protocols and communication materials around how to correctly use personal protective equipment (PPE).
  • Screening and testing. Mayo Clinic is at the forefront of COVID-19 testing, especially around the development of serologic testing. Our experts have established testing algorithms to inform users on which and when tests are appropriate and determined the screening protocols to manage people coming in and out of campus, including active symptom screening and passive self-monitoring.
  • Exposure management and contact tracing. Mayo Clinic developed robust protocols for exposure management and contact tracing, enabling a rapid response to limit further exposure. The process identifies anyone who may have been in contact with an individual infected with COVID-19 and provides clear guidance for managers and supervisors on how to follow up on exposures and keep individuals informed.

Each step in planning should be evaluated in accordance with organizational, local and national guidelines. See the United States Center for Disease Control’s guidance on preparing.
