Comprehensive COVID-19 Safety Protocols
Beginning in January, Jupiter Medical Center implemented
comprehensive infection prevention protocols to safeguard
the health of hospital personnel, patients and their families
during the global COVID-19 pandemic. The protocols, which
follow state and federal guidelines from the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention, include screening everyone
who enters the hospital, a revised visitor’s policy, use of
personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with CDC
recommendations, and rigorous cleaning and disinfecting
procedures. These rigorous safety measures and state-of-the-
art technology include the use of Tru-D SmartUVC ultraviolet
disinfection robots, which inactivate viruses and other
pathogens on surfaces. This is just one part of our rigorous
