NSA 03/18/2020 VJO TPMG COM: Communicating Outside the Box

Vallejo, CA US
March 18, 2020

Since the rise in patient's diagnosed with COVID-19 physicians are performing more virtual medicine appointments. With the increase in virtual medicine appointments many physicians need learning new tips and skills to enhance their communication skills with patients, families, and colleagues. 77% of all New visits are being managed initially by virtual medicine. Across sites, we see 37 – 63% increases in weekly  virtual medicine volumes.

The medical profession can be very stressful and with the increase in patient's diagnosed with COVID-19 physicians are working longer hours, managing a more stressful environment. It is important for physicians to learn tips for managing their self-care.

This conference will train our physicians how to provide our members the excellent care they deserve while keeping all of us as safe as possible during this time of COVID-19 through virtual medicine promoting a less stressful environment and emphasizing that doctors manage their self-care as well.

All physicians and providers involved in patient care.

1. Learn new skills in applying the 4 Habits model to virtual medicine appointments.

2. Incorporate empathy into their virtual medicine appointments.
