AHA issues Advisory on caring with limited resources during COVID-19 crisis
Responding to requests from hospitals and health systems, the AHA has compiled resources, tools and sample policies that hospital and clinical leaders may find helpful in developing their own organization’s approach to caring for patients with limited resources or under crisis circumstances.
See the AHA Advisory for protocols and educational tools and resources related to clinical ethics and crisis standards of care. Please note that the tools listed do not necessarily reflect the views of the AHA, nor do they constitute clinical advice from the AHA. Rather, they are meant to assist hospitals and health systems in devising or refining their own approaches.
