New York City hotels have begun opening their doors to health care professionals to cut out possible commute times as well as offer them a place to stay isolated from their families.
The Four Seasons Hotel New York on 57th Street was the first hotel to be announced as part of the effort to house health care workers and late last week welcomed the first group from New York State Nurses Association. The rooms are being paid for by hotel owner, Ty Warner.
These measures include: social distancing that begins before anyone enters the hotel, a single point of entry into the hotel where both hotel employees and health care workers will be asked a series of questions and have their temperatures checked, and boxed meals and beverages made available to take up to rooms.
Since the Four Seasons announced their efforts in late March, the Room Mate Grace Hotel and the Wythe Hotel in Brooklyn have also offered free housing for health care staff. "We so far have secured 10,000 beds and 20 hotels and we believe that the capacity is there," Katz said last week.
