An Ebola Treatment Unit (ETU) is a specialized facility designed to care for patients infected with the Ebola virus. It is equipped with strict infection control measures, such as isolation rooms, protective clothing for staff, and protocols to prevent the virus from spreading. Patients receive medical care, hydration, and supportive treatments to help their bodies fight the illness. The ETU also helps monitor and contain outbreaks by safely managing infectious waste and disinfecting the environment. Overall, it is a crucial part of controlling Ebola outbreaks and providing safe, effective care to patients.
