The “New Normal”: Post Pandemic Healthcare

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” – Helen Keller

Positivity and planning are our best resources in finding our way beyond the pandemic. The same strategies that helped us not only survive but thrive during the pandemic can be carried into the post-pandemic era. The world will never be the same again, so why should we expect our practices to be as well? Leadership should take this opportunity to actively seek feedback from their health care workers on how to make the “new normal” far superior to the past.

Here are some suggested questions leadership can ask their health care workers:

• What changes made during the pandemic should be continued?
• How can leadership best support you and your work?
• What additional resources or training do you need?
• What types of resources are most helpful (handouts, webinars, short videos, etc.)?
• What topics are you interested in learning more about?
