Telemedicine transforms how effectively ConnectMed can support and provide long-term medical care. Our teams use Zoom, FaceTime, WhatsApp, and the like to stay in touch with patients and our network of local providers.
Telemedicine also provides educational experiences to medical students and trainees. In conjunction with some of our medical outreach trips, we broadcast or record telemedicine conferences from partner sites for medical students and professionals in the U.S. and abroad. These conferences consist of academic presentations, clinical interviews with patients, and opportunities to view surgeries directly over the surgical field. These experiences provide exposure to medical cases, conditions, and approaches that improve overall professional abilities. They also improve conference participants’ cultural competencies by giving them opportunities to remotely care for patients and families from different countries.
Smile 4 Kids
Nurses Appreciation Week 2021 is May 6-May 12, and our Smile4Kids cause this month is NURSES & NURSING STUDENTS – recognizing, appreciating and investing in them!
We will spotlight some of the many nurses and nursing students who have volunteered with our teams and provided critical care to patients around the world .
We will share updates about the low-income nursing students from rural communities in Vietnam who have received ConnectMed scholarships to attend Hue University School of Nursing (Hue, Vietnam). With your generosity and support this month, we hope to continue this scholarship support.
Make a donation in the name of your favorite #SuperHeroNurse and we will send him/her a note of acknowledgment and a ConnectMed #OperatingWithCare mask & lanyard!
