Cloth Mask Donations for Patients

Piedmont will accept donated cloth masks to use with patients who enter our emergency departments with respiratory symptoms when they are placed in the COVID -19 rule out group. The goal of the patient mask is to control secretions from the patient, which a cloth mask would accomplish. The patient would keep the cloth mask until leaving the emergency room or is discharged from our facilities. Having these donated masks available would help Piedmont save surgical/procedural masks to use on providers and clinicians instead.

Linked here is one pattern that is suitable for patient masks. In addition, the specifications for patient cloth masks are fairly broad, so patterns that have been shared on the internet are also appropriate.

• Masks for Provider/Clinician Future Use
  While there are masks that can be manufactured with a specific type of material that would allow them to be appropriate for clinical use, this process is being handled directly with the groups equipped to produce them.
   
• When Masks are Ready to be Donated
  When you have items to donate, contact PitchingIn@piedmont.org and we’ll let you know the  closest drop off location based on where you are.
