This new reality due to the COVID-19 has given huge challenges for the entire humanity.
In our case as a foundation, our challenges are mostly related on keeping committed to our patients and our community in general. We have been able to transform and reinforce our attention programs through virtuality. From surgery consulting to integration workshops, expert webinars and even choir rehearsals. We have attended over 500 patients in more that 30 online meetings, with excellent feedback from all of those who have been part of them.
Virtuality has also given us the chance to reconnect with those patients that live outside the city where our headquarters are. Normally they have issues coming to us so often because of how far they live. With this new connection we have, they are able to stay in touch and participate even more than they did before.
It has been such a productive experience that we are planning on continuing our virtual encounters as a complement to our presence services, even after we reopen our doors again.
