Mark your calendar and join us on March 30, 2022 from 8:45AM - 5:00PM for the  8th Lenoir-Rhyne Symposium on the Future of Healthcare: The New Normal in Healthcare. The event will be in person at Lenoir-Rhyne University - Belk Centrum at 625 7th Ave NE, Hickory, NC 28601.
The healthcare environment has changed; practitioners are tasked with deciding who gets treatment, policy and practice changes and sustaining health. The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically changed the way we consume our healthcare. Practitioners who are equipped to handle the personal and population-based needs of an ever growing, diverse community, are more efficient and prepared to respond to the barriers to care that are amplified due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This symposium focuses on practical applications, discusses how healthcare systems have changed and addresses how those changes met the current and future health needs.

Upon completion of this symposium, participants should be able to:
  • Discuss the impact of COVID-19 on healthcare systems structure.
  • Discuss the challenges facing practitioners.
  • Discuss the successes of health care practitioners.
  • Identify practical skills for improving the health outcomes of patients.
  • Analyze gaps in care that impede practice while learning to employ strategies to cope with changing populations and conditions.


Registration fee is $100 or $80 for groups of 3 or more, get signed up today!

 

This symposium will be beneficial to physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, psychologists, clinical social workers, mental health counselors, practice managers and others interested in this topic.
