Home healthcare providers, the lifelines to 12 million vulnerable Americans, are scrambling to decide how to serve patients who show symptoms of coronavirus -- and how to ensure that the providers themselves neither catch nor spread it.

CHICAGO - Home healthcare providers, the lifelines to 12 million vulnerable Americans, are scrambling to decide how to serve patients who show symptoms of coronavirus — and how to ensure that the providers themselves neither catch nor spread it.

And in New York, America’s epicenter of coronavirus cases, trade groups said dozens of caregivers have left their jobs and their patients, hurting efforts to swiftly screen at-risk adults and slow the spread of the virus.As hospitals continue to handle an influx of coronavirus cases, patients who need care but are not critically ill are likely to be sent home.

“I spent the whole weekend to score new masks,” said Dickison, also executive officer of Cincinnati-based Home Helpers Home Care. “In the event that a client answers ‘Yes’ to any of the questions, an alert will be triggered,” according to the directive distributed last week. “You will be instructed to stop the visit, leave the residence, and contact your supervisor immediately.”

Yet in NY, the epicenter Gov. Cuomo said NY currently has all the equipment they currently need. The CEO of Northwell Health, largest Healthcare provider in NY said on CNBC today they also have all the equipment they need and are handling the capacity. Seems important to note.

We never even had Health care. Hospital: Here's your $10k bill sick person, I hope you don't have any complications or you'll lose your home.

Is anyone surprised?

Er.. what are those things

Well not collapse! Just too expensive in the near future!
