King County moves forward with additional quarantine sites
Last week, the military packed up the field hospital they'd been planning at CenturyLink Field Event Center without ever seeing a patient as those resources were deployed to another area.
Even though the field hospital was packed up, Gov. Jay Inslee says we are not out of the woods yet and King County plans to move forward with isolation, recovery and quarantine sites around the county.
On Sunday, King County opened its first Assessment Center and Recovery Center in Shoreline. The plan is for the site to be ready for patients with a capacity of 140 people.
The AC/RC is different from other sites because they will offer basic health care and behavioral health care available onsite, but no medical procedures are happening on this site. The site is not a hospital and if someone needs that level of care, they will be transferred there for help.
