Repurposing a Small Community Hospital Surgical Residency Program in an Epicenter of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
CONCLUSION: Repurposing the surgical department for the concerns of the pandemic has involved all surgical staff. We worked with other departments to allocate our team to areas of need and re-evaluated daily. The strengths of our team to deliver care and perform many bedside procedures allowed us to meet the demands posed by this disease while remaining as a cohesive unit.
