Hi neighbors,

A reminder that SNA is helping to manage a neighborhood COV-19 help

Please feel free to email me directly with any questions.

Secondly, a message below from Monica Anderson at Miriam Hospital/Lifespan:

"Dear Neighbors,



You may have noticed that a small tent has been placed outside of The
Miriam Hospital  on Fifth Street near the entrance to the Emergency
Department. We wanted to let you know its purpose to avoid any
misinformation. The tent, *which is not currently in use*, was put up to
prepare for a possible surge in COVID-19 patients. If needed, patients
could first be seen and evaluated in the tent by medical staff prior to
being moved inside the ED.  We hope that we won’t need to use the screening
tent but are planning ahead in case of that eventuality.



Please stay safe and stay home as much as you are able.  As always if you
need to reach me please email me at TMHNeighbors at Lifespan.org or call the
hotline at (401) 793 4040.  I am working in the office a few days a week
with limited hours while I assist our other hospitals during this time of
need.   You may experience a bit of a delay in my response during this
pandemic, and I’d ask for your patience during this time."
