Due to the unprecedented COVID-19 global pandemic, the San Francisco Hospital & Institution Committee is suspending all operations.

Effective immediately, all H&I meetings are cancelled.

Meeting Coordinators should notify all of their volunteers that meetings are cancelled until further notice. Coordinators should notify their facility contacts to inform them of the situation.

Group reps should announce that H&I meetings are suspended as well as orientations and business meetings.

This situation will be evaluated again prior to the next San Francisco H&I Steering Committee meeting scheduled on April 18 and this guidance will be updated.

This is not an easy decision, but our common welfare comes first and that means we must take drastic measures to reduce the spread of this infection.

Yours in service,
Penny C.
SF H&I Area Chair
