The wake of the COVID-19 pandemic has required the immediate shift of our work into the virtual space. Now several months into the pandemic, there is an evolving transition into the “new normal” of a hybrid care delivery model: balancing telehealth, in-person, and in-building care.

This timely session sought to surface early efforts of designed solutions that incorporate and address patients’ needs and concerns at this time. We turned to Laura Wong, MD, PhD, to learn how Adventist Health Lodi Memorial partnered with human-centered designers to encourage sick patients to seek emergency care. Next, we heard from Meagan Mulligan and Brandon Bettencourt of Chapa-De Indian Health as they shared how they’re working to make patients feel safe during visits, as well as innovative approaches they’ve implemented to bring in patients (via drive-through) with chronic conditions who need to be seen for care.
