Abstract
The COVID-19 crisis has highlighted telemedicine as a care delivery tool uniquely suited for a disaster pandemic, where the use of audio and video communication can increase connection while decreasing person to person exposure. Our institution rapidly deployed telemedicine as a tool to improve care inside the Emergency Department: existing telemedicine equipment was redeployed and new equipment purchased to increase connectivity between staff, patients, and patient’s families, and also to reduce the duration and frequency of situations that could transmit viral illness person to person.
