Main ContentUMMC's COVID-19 Clinical Processes
In an effort to provide timely responses to requests we receive from medical professionals throughout Mississippi with regard to COVID-19, UMMC is providing access to the various protocols, procedures, processes, and checklists that UMMC’s Mississippi Critical Care Organization has developed for internal use at UMMC. These are not recommendations nor are they guidance for use outside of UMMC. UMMC is merely making these available in response to requests we have received. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and/or the Mississippi State Department of Health may have additional or conflicting guidance.
