As news of the H1N1 Flu (Swine Flu) continues to dominate the news morning, noon and night, we continue to wait for the first confirmed case in the state of Idaho. If the H1N1 Flu does make its way to our area, our Urgent Care Clinics and Family Practice providers are as ready as we can possibly be. We continue to update our providers and staff on current guidelines set by the state and federal offices overseeing the outbreak. We have taken measures to ensure we have the necessary supplies in our clinics to treat those that may have the virus (as much as possible). And we pass along information to our internal teams to keep them informed about changes as quickly as they happen. Even with 13 locations spread across a wide valley, we do our best to make sure all of our team members have the support that they need to make informed decisions regarding patient care. Our culture at PHMG is one of shared resources, knowledge and learning. It's one of the best features about our group.
