How OU Medicine is Keeping You Safe

Universal masking has been in place at OU Medicine since the beginning of the pandemic and is a key component to patient and employee safety.
Our personal protective equipment on-hand for OU Medicine is at a strong level – with 30 days on hand at any given moment.
Patients receiving treatment for COVID-19 are cared for in separate areas than non-COVID-19 patients. Widespread screening, testing and pre-admission procedures are in place to ensure patients receiving care are not COVID-19 positive.
OU Medical Center’s lab and its high-throughput capability allows for widespread testing of our patients, providers and employees, which allows a safe, COVID-free care environment for our patients.
OU Medicine conducts widespread and aggressive screening and testing of healthcare employees to ensure patient safety when receiving care.
Visitation policies are temporarily restricted and follow the guidance of Governor Kevin Stitt’s re-opening plan for Oklahoma.
Pre-appointment and pre-admissions processes have been established to ensure patient safety. Processes include patient screening, patient testing and appropriate lead times to ensure that patients receive the proper protection from COVID-19 when utilizing our services.
OU Medicine is managing physical distancing and elective surgery with CDC guidance and is, therefore, staggering different services accepting patients and maintaining a lower volume of cases to ensure proper protection is always in place for patients and providers.
