In today’s world, the work of healthcare professionals comes with unique challenges. To protect the health and safety of both patients and medical staff, patient care has been forced to evolve, coming to rely on technologies that facilitate telehealth and telemedicine. Doctors, physicians and hospital systems have had to adapt to altered workflows and redefined interactions, further ingrained these technologies into “the new normal” of medical care, integral to meeting patient needs. In the debut episode of The Big REthink, host Barry Ross welcomes Dr. Ania Garlitski, cardiac electrophysiologist and co-director of the New England Cardiac Arrhythmia Center at Tufts Medical Center, to discuss this new era of medicine and the critical, evolving role of technology in patient care.
