At UChicago Medicine, we are initiating important clinical trials, and our physicians will have access to promising therapies on a compassionate-use basis for patients not responding to standard therapies.
An app developed by two of our physicians and staff from a variety of different disciplines as everyone focuses their efforts to come up with innovative and creative mechanisms to meet this challenge. In addition, there has been close collaboration among hospitals and city, state and federal public health experts and agencies.
National Doctors’ Day is celebrated each year on March 30 to recognize the contributions of physicians to individual lives and the communities they serve. This year, as the global pandemic rages across the nation and our own city, all of us should recognize and thank our doctors and their colleagues — the millions of selfless and courageous healthcare workers serving at the forefront of the fight against this insidious virus.
We have a dedicated team of physicians, nurses, technologists and support staff taking care of patients on the frontline. And there are scores of teams supporting them — from environmental services and social work to spiritual care and many others. They all have been working every day knowing they are at risk of exposure, amid an underlying concern of running out of personal protective equipment and the possibility of exposing their families as well.
Despite all of this, they continue to provide the highest level of care possible. Their dedication is a true inspiration, and we are honored to help lead an organization made up of people like them.
Today, as we continue to collectively experience a change in our daily routines that is impacting so many of us in so many different ways, let us remember to thank our physicians, nurses, and all healthcare workers and support staff who are risking their own health to care for the most vulnerable among us. They truly deserve our thanks and our support.
