101st, Fort Campbell CG reviews BACH's COVID-19 response preps
Blanchfield Army Community Hospital
March 24, 2020 | 1:15
The Commanding General for 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) and Fort Campbell, Major General Brian Winski visited BACH for a first-hand look at the hospital’s preparations to respond to the coronavirus, #COVID19 pandemic.

Among other measures, the hospital established a drive-up clinic for patients referred by the Nurse Advice Line or BACH’s Appointment Line where medical staff can conduct additional screening to determine if a test is necessary. Once a test for COVID-19 is administered it is sent out for processing. Patients with mild symptoms self-quarantine at home while awaiting test results.The hospital established additional COVID-19 clinic space accessible from the drive-up clinic and separated from the main hospital where healthcare providers can perform additional screening of patients under investigation away from the general population to prevent the spread of illness.

BACH’s appointment line is operating seven days a week in addition to the Nurse Advice Line to answer calls from concerned beneficiaries. BACH provides health service support to prevent, detect, and treat COVID-19 patients on Fort Campbell in order to protect the population and preserve readiness.
