With the COVID-19 crisis dragging on and new strains of the novel coronavirus popping up in the United States, health care providers are getting dispirited, according to a poll conducted by Morning Consult. It found that nearly half of health workers questioned said their mental health had suffered during the pandemic. In the same poll, 90% of health care workers say the pandemic isn’t over—and about a third said the worst of the pandemic is still to come. About a quarter have considered quitting altogether. The full report is available here. 

 

In the face of these statistics, how do you keep yourself and your employees energized? We’ve got some tips we printed right as the pandemic landed, and they’re still of use. Check them out here. 

 

Let me take a minute to share some good news. Starting next week, we’re launching a brand-new live product demonstration here at HomeCare. HomeCare Product Watch Live! is our way to bring you new and innovative products when we can’t be together at trade shows. You’ll get a 10-15 minute live video demo and then time to ask questions of company reps; the whole thing lasts 30 minutes or less so it won’t take a big bite out of your day. Our first one is Tuesday—click here to secure your spot. 

 

See you on Monday!
