[On-demand webinar] COVID-19: Strategy and perspective from the front lines

Ken BellClient News, Training4 Comments

As COVID-19 began to spread, the focus was on hospitals in the scramble to ensure adequate staffing, beds, equipment, and resources to care for coronavirus patients. In an ill-advised move to help address this, CA and NY State officials announced that nursing homes couldn’t refuse patients coming from the hospital, even if they were COVID-19 positive, and we couldn’t demand testing prior to admission. Given the limited resources our PALTC facilities have to begin with, everyone has been scrambling trying to discern what they should be focusing on.

Join us in this free webinar to hear from Dr. Steven Buslovich, MD, CMD, Co-founder of Patient Pattern and Dr. Michael Wasserman, MD, CMD, President of CALTCM about their frontline experience on both coasts.
