EvergreenHealth and COVID-19


Case Study: EvergreenHealth doubles respirator fit testing amidst COVID-19 pandemicIn February, Washington State was the first to announce a death from COVID-19.

In March, EvergreenHealth, an integrated healthcare system in Kirkland, Washington, asked TSI’s Long Yang for help after evaluating their respiratory protection program. They realized they needed help to ramp up respirator fit testing and develop better training practices to prepare for the oncoming health emergency. Long and TSI were able to help EvergreenHealth double their fit testing and improve their recordkeeping in less time than a traditional qualitative fit testing program.
