Thank you Ms. Mitchell for your comment. ASPR TRACIE recently responded to a technical assistance request related to ACS sources of additional staff and we included your comment below in that response: https://files.asprtracie.hhs.gov/documents/aspr-tracie-ta---covid-19-acs-sources-of-additional-staff.pdf.

I don't understand how large groups of available practitioners are being left out of these plans. The physical therapist is qualified to mobilize patient, deep suction, teach and train in breathing strategies, strength train and most importantly get patient functional enough to return home. We are not going to have enough of any one discipline to cover both hospital systems let alone additional off-site locations. We need to include everyone who has useful skills.
