4 ways the pandemic has changed medical care

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted an evolution in how, where, and when HCPs interact with patients.

Traveling nurses have shored up understaffed hospitals, telemedicine has skyrocketed, and home health care is on the rise, with 73% of patients indicating they would prefer to recover at home instead of at a hospital after a major medical event.

Although many pandemic-related changes in the healthcare industry appeared to be temporary fixes during a pandemic, some are here to stay. Staying on top of these trends can help keep clinicians ahead of the curve.
