Purpose:
Through facilitated group discussion, the exercise aims to examine and strengthen your existing plans, procedures and capabilities to manage an imported case of COVID-19.

The exercise objectives are:
• Review the operation management process for a suspected case of COVID-19.
• Confirm arrangements for notification, coordination and internal communications before and after the confirmation of a COVID-19 case.
• Confirm procedures related to the management of a suspected cases before and after laboratory confirmation.
• Review plans to clarify lines of accountability (roles & responsibilities) and communication to enable a timely, well-coordinated and effective response.

1. Share information on practices on IPC for endemic colonization in a tertiary facility and how those precautions could evolve based on the progress of the event, then further integrating response capabilities, plans and procedures to triage and implement source control measures for case of COVID-19 in your facility.
2. Identify challenges in bed occupancy and staff management between different departments.
3. Conduct gap analysis through reflection on how the scenario could play out in your countries.
