Abstract
This paper focuses on the risk assessments of the COVID-19 isolation tents, whether they follow the standard safety protocols and guidelines set by the W.H.O. and the D.O.H. to cater severe COVID-19 cases in the most hit areas. Through conducting a survey, the researchers found that in terms of application of: 1-hygiene, 2-personal protective equipment, 3-visitor guidelines, 4-decontamination, disinfection, and sterilization and 5-isolation tent precautions, standard safety protocols in the isolation tents are poorly practiced and that majority of the respondents gave a score level of 1 point (Poor) for it. With this, the researchers did a risk assessment with the help of Ishikawa Diagram, to lay down all the underlying problems in tent that makes it inefficient and ineffective. Aside from that, the researchers adopted the service quality manufacturing-based approach. Wherein it relates with the conformance to the design or specifications (which in this study refers to the guidelines set by the W.H.O. and D.O.H. for isolation tents) and non-compliance means error. Finally, the researchers led to the solution of improving the isolation tents through its design, to make it more efficient and cost-effective.
