Have you ever wondered what happens to your patient after you have transferred care? Have you ever thought about why different healthcare providers do things a certain way?
This webinar is the second in a series focused on exploring continuity of care. Each webinar will examine different aspects of the health care system and how they impact patients.
Webinar Two is led by Hollie Shannon and Associate Professor Brendan Shannon. Hollie will share her experiences and expertise as a social worker in both hospitals and community outreach. Brendan will contrast that with his experience as a paramedic and how developing new models of care can positively impact our patients.
