The Healthcare Confidential Podcast | Episode 45 “A Year’s Worth of Conversations About Covid-19”

As we close in on one year of Healthcare Confidential episodes, we decided to take a look back at a topic that has dominated many of our interviews and conversations: the Covid-19 pandemic. How have the healthcare providers who have been guests on the podcast coped with the stress of caring for patients during a global pandemic? What have academics learned from our collective experiences over the past year? What are those on the frontlines anticipating in the months ahead? This week, we revisit key conversations from the past 11 months and highlight the insights and take-aways regarding the pandemic.

The Take-Away: Not one, but many take-aways about the physical and psychological toll of Covid-19, truths about ourselves and our society that the pandemic has illuminated, and the incredible resiliency of healthcare workers at every level who met every challenge posed by this historic event.
