Community through Crisis: COVID-19 and Healthcare Education
This video was filmed live as part of the FutureLearn Festival of Learning, June 2020.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the healthcare sector has faced a number of challenges beyond the obvious threat to public health. Health professionals have been forced to consider issues such as “how do we counteract the spread of misinformation?”, “how do we retrain those having to urgently return to the profession?”, and “how do we support those faced with low resources?”. This session explores this response, and is particularly aimed at those working in healthcare, whether you're on the frontline or behind the scenes. Four of the teams involved in building rapid response courses share their experiences of working quickly and collaboratively to build community through crisis.
