This week – Nursing Assistants Week — we at Green Key Resources want to extend a special thank you to the nation’s certified nursing assistants and recognize the vital work they do.

These are the professionals who do the day-to-day work of caring for patients too ill, too elderly or who are just in need of extra help as they recover.

Never before has so much been asked of the 1.6 million women and men working in nursing and care facilities and hospitals all across the country. Risking their own health, they’ve worked alongside doctors and RNs to care for COVID-19 patients, bathing, turning and feeding those who need the help and answering their calls.

In other times, this work is part of their daily routine. This year, it is heroic work.

Thank you for being there. We appreciate what you do for all of us.

Chronic Pain Patients Find Telehealth Cost Effective

Telehealth continues to demonstrate its popularity, this time among people suffering with chronic pain.

At their annual meeting this month, itself held online, anesthesiologists heard that patients who met with their pain specialist remotely were overwhelmingly satisfied with the experience.

Conducted by the UCLA Comprehensive Pain Center in Los Angeles, the survey period began in August 2019, long before the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients at the pain center were given the option of in-office or remote appointments by video or phone. The 1,398 patients who chose the remote options had a cumulative 2,948 virtual appointments.

According to an account of the study by Healthcare Finance the virtual meetings saved patients both time and money. Half saved at least 69 minutes commuting and a roundtrip of 26 miles or more. They also saved a median $22 in gas and parking fees for each virtual visit.

Initial visits for new patients or existing patients with new conditions were best served by in-person office appointments, the report said. Thereafter, follow-up appointments could be conducted remotely. Anesthesiologists participating in the conference estimated that up to 50% of visits could be virtual.
