COVID-19. HOSPITAL MANAGEMENT. OPERATING ROOM. TERTIARY HOSPITAL. ENHANCED POLICIES

Since the emergence of COVID-19 last December 2019, healthcare workers have been severely impacted. This quanti-quali research aimed to assess Davao City’s tertiary hospital’s COVID-19 policies and mitigation protocols inside the operating room for enhancement. A total of 121 respondents comprised Anesthesiologists, Operating Room Nurses, and Non-Nursing attendants whose duty assignment is in the operating room from 2021 to 2022. The statistical treatments used included the frequency count, percentages, Mean, Standard Deviation, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Mann-Whitney U test. The significance level for all inferential tests was set at .05 alpha using a two-tailed test. The data gathered showed that the operating room management as a whole was evaluated as “excellent.” All respondents evaluated the operating room management as “excellent” regardless of their sex, age and position/designation. On the contrary, the operating room management was evaluated as “very good” by respondents working below two years, and those working eight years and above while evaluated as “excellent” by those working two to four years and five to seven years. A significant difference was noted in the government hospitals' operating room management in terms of the number of years in service, and no significant differences were revealed in terms of sex, age, and position/designation. Also, most of the respondents felt fear when providing services to COVID-19-positive patients in the operating room and answered that the changes implemented by the hospital were “effective” but needed improvement.
