In addition, the recommendations of societies, institutions such as the WHO, the CDC, the ECDC, the National Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Health of Madrid and the center's own experience have been taken into account.ResultsDescription of the key elements for the organization,as well as the different areas of action within a hospital: emergencies, consultations, hospitalization and operating rooms.ConclusionsManagement during a pandemic requires a high degree of agility in response and plasticity in people.
