*** Clarification for where it says to give examples of our patients from clinical because we did not see COVID patients: “ It is asking for your to consider how COVID-19 has impacted the care of patients in the community/inpatient setting, not how the disease has impacted patients personally.  We understand that many of you have been unable to care for patients with active COVID-19 diagnoses in the clinical arena.  Consider the following:

 

-visiting hours

-mask wearing and communication

-fear of or limited access to care (elective procedures)
