Orlando Regional Medical Center.
This is Becker’s Hospital Review’s very interesting look at how Orlando Health, a six-hospital system with two affiliated hospitals, dealt with the carnage left by mass-murdering Islamist Omar Mateen on Sunday.
Becker’s reports that:
1. “Orlando Health’s Orlando Regional Medical Center took in most of the victims. ”
2. “The hospital tweeted at 8 a.m. Sunday it had cared for just under 50 victims of the attack. ”
3. “Orlando Health put its facilities under lockdown for visitors early Sunday {June 12} morning. ”
4. “The hospital allowed family members of confirmed patients to visit during the lockdown. The hospital also provided family members with multiple ways to access information about loved ones — it provided information at a local senior center and established a victim hotline, 407-246-4357.”
5. “The hospital is not accepting in-kind donations due to the nature of the incident. It also asked those who wished to donate blood not to come to the hospital, but to go to a blood center. ”
