Housekeeping-Public Vomiting Incidents
|
Violation:
On the voyage from December 1 to 6 (Voyage 27141), there were 15 public vomiting incidents where the passenger was identified; however, only two of the passengers were followed up by medical to determine if the individuals met the AGE case definition and required isolation. According to medical staff and available records, the medical center was not notified of these PVIs through email, as is the procedure. Medical was able to identify two emails housekeeping sent to a medical email address that was not being monitored. There were no other records for the remaining incidents and staff reported it was a break in communication.
|
Recommendation:
Ensure effective communication procedures are in place for alerting medical of PVI/PDIs when individuals have been identified. Proper evaluation should include determining if the individuals meet the definition of an AGE reportable case and assessing the need for isolation.
