New York City healthcare workers got an intensive training session recently in preparation for the possibility of an infected Ebola patient arriving in the state, according to an article on the Newsweek website.
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo both spoke before the session, which was hosted by the SEIU 1199 healthcare workers union, which represents workers in the eastern states of New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Florida, Maryland and Washington, D.C., and the Greater New York Hospital Association.
Cuomo urged healthcare workers to calm rampant public fears over Ebola.
“Keep the anxiety down. Keep the fear down, because it’s unnecessary and it’s not right and it only makes the situation more complex,” he said.
Eight New York state hospitals have been chosen to take Ebola patients, with five in New York City: Mount Sinai Hospital, Bellevue Hospital Center and Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital, all in Manhattan; Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx; and North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System.
