We want to hear from you at the Healing Healthcare Summit. We feel it’s important to hear directly from healthcare workers and listen to their stories, as a way to bear witness to their experience of the pandemic. To this end, we are calling on all healthcare workers: paramedics, nurses, home caregivers, physicians, administrators, CEOs and so on, to share glimpses of your experience of being on or close to the front lines of the COVID pandemic.
