The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) has issued an All Facilities Letter (AFL) in response to Tropical Storm Kay, which is expected to impact Southern California from September 9-11, 2022. Healthcare facilities, including nursing homes, must have a disaster and mass casualty program with contingency plans to address potential power loss, flooding, evacuation, and other adverse conditions affecting patient and resident safety. Facilities are required to report all emergency or disaster-related occurrences to their local CDPH district office. The CDPH recommends reviewing guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on hurricane and tropical storm preparedness, including considerations for COVID-19. Facilities must contact their CDPH district office if Tropical Storm Kay compromises patient health and safety or requires evacuation, transfer, or discharge of patients. The National Hurricane Center and Central Pacific Hurricane Center provide current warnings and watches for facilities to monitor.
