During Covid-19, telehealth became an indispensable means for healthcare workers to connect to their patients.
Telehealth has the potential to reduce healthcare costs, improve patient outreach and health outcomes, and change the way providers treat their patients. In this webinar, Dr. St George will discuss how training for students and clinicians in the use of the virtual space can create a safer, more effective, resilient, and equitable healthcare delivery system in the real world.
