Call To Care NH: The Directcare Workforce In The Time Of COVID-19 @ Via ZOOM
Jul 15 @ 10:00 am – 11:30 am

As has been well-documented, the state’s healthcare workforce has been at the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic. While much of the recent focus has been on the tremendous efforts of providers and how they are taking care of patients, the issue has also served to place a fresh spotlight on the ongoing workforce shortage and the concerns of many as to what this mean for NH’s future.

As we work together to provide care across the continuum, this webinar will provide a perspective on the direct care workforce in the time of COVID-19 and some of the actions needed to address this vital issue. The Direct Care Workforce Strategic Workgroup is pleased to offer this webinar, the first in a series, which will examine and highlight the many issues impacting the direct care workforce in our state.

In addition to a robust conversation with experienced voices in the field, this webinar will also include clips of the documentary Call to Care NH. For those interested, we invite you to view the full Documentary here prior to the webinar.
