Coronavirus Pandemic 2020
It feels like a dream or a movie but sadly this pandemic is for real. Across the world, lives have been lost and forever changed. Our health care system is exhausted and continues to provide the best care possible under the current situation. Many of us know of someone adversely affected by this terrible virus. We all will find a new normal when it comes to work, travel, finances, recreation and our everyday life. Make sure to follow local and state recommendations. Take a moment to reach out to someone that may need your help or just need to hear your voice.
Our country has made significant adjustments to better meet the needs of us all. From increasing capacity to producing ventilators and hospital beds, we are better prepared for the increasing cases that are overloading our hospitals. Personal Protective Equipment also called PPE supplies continue to be a challenge but things are getting better. These products are needed and save lives and we must make sure our healthcare team has the needed supplies for their safety and patient safety.
Here in Maryland, testing is more available as we see our cases and deaths continuing to be significantly higher but improving also. The governor has shared his plan for our recovery and we must be vigilant going forward as we return to some normalcy.
We will continue to update you on the availability of any testing and the locations that are available for you. This is a reminder that we continue to be open and are glad to be able to provide telemedicine services. Be safe out there.
