News and Resources
Thank you to the clinicians and hospital leaders who continue to serve as our first line of defense as the coronavirus epidemic spreads across the United States.
Vituity is directly confronting this pandemic on the front line of healthcare from emergency departments and urgent care centers to inpatient and critical care units. As a small measure of support for our colleagues across the United States – and the world – we are sharing the resources compiled for our clinical teams, including best-practice checklists for providers and hospital leaders on how to prepare for and manage COVID-19.
I am incredibly proud of all the hard work clinicians and healthcare teams are doing day in and day out to manage this epidemic. Medicine isn’t just a job, it’s a mission – and challenges like COVID-19 are the opportunity to fulfill our calling.
