Gratitude to front-line medical workers in COVID -19! Together, we will win this battle.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been brutal to deal with, and it has placed a lot of pressure on our healthcare sector. Healthcare workers are individuals whose responsibility is to safeguard and enhance their societies' wellbeing. Together all these medical practitioners bring up the world health sector with all their diversity. The first line of security in combating the COVID-19 pandemic was ward staff, ward administrators secretaries, ANMs at ward level PHCs, medical officials, technicians, and paramedics at Primary health care facilities or "Max centers."

However, our healthcare providers are also devoting their effort and time to preventing this pandemic. We are humiliated by your great efforts, your tremendous attempts to manage COVID-19, which also put your lives at risk for the country's good. It is our great desire that we can start to progress together to provide our residents with the most significant health facilities.

We would like to recognize the people who worked to support our healthcare staff and other primary workers.

COVID-19 also made several healthcare workers uncertain of their organizational system and worried that their workplace needs teamwork. However, with the right solution, leaders will re-establish confidence and reinforce the kind of collaborative spirit that allows an organization to work smoothly—and have the best possible patient treatment.

It doesn't seem easy to imagine that there is so much to be grateful for this Thanksgiving. Many citizens have had a tough year because of the worldwide pandemic, which has affected billions of human livelihoods, infected millions of people, and killed more than a million. Giving thanks, however, has a particular significance this year for many Indians who were on the front lines of the pandemic or who were sick and healed.

These Primary health care, or PHC, refers to "essential health care"  are staffed by young medical officers who have recently graduated. The coordination, financial, and groundwork are handled by a group of young ward volunteers and ward secretaries in their early to mid-twenties.

Since the first lockdown in March 2020, these young people have been at the front line of the fight against the pandemic, putting their wellbeing and safety first.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare professionals have become champions, but they aren't recognized for it. Nurses have been underappreciated for a long time. When other members of their health services undergo the vaccination before them, front-line staff are shocked. Unfortunately, certain people's faith in their organizations' representatives could be shaken due to this.

How can healthcare leaders foster a spirit of collaboration, mainly if their organization made mistakes during the pandemic?

MODERN HEALTHCARE: 

This is a fascinating subject because it's one of the subjects where we've seen the tales and witnessed their never-ending attempts. It's also looked into how health services can kind of restore coordination, mainly if they've made any mistakes throughout the pandemic.

I want to exchange a few numbers with you. To begin with, we've learned that clinicians get more funding from their peers than from their respective healthcare systems and agencies. According to a study of more than 2,300 doctors conducted by Modern Healthcare in September 2020, 40% of physicians claim their health system aided their emotional wellbeing during the pandemic, but 73 % believe their peers were the most supportive internet outlets.

 Another statistic is that 78 % of healthcare staff believe COVID-19 would have a very negative or extremely negative impact on their workplace only one month after the outbreak began.

Finally, according to a study conducted by the National Nurses United in February 2021, 81 percent of 9,200 nurses continue to reuse single-use products such as masks and gowns. According to a survey of 1,083 infection preventionists conducted by Modern Healthcare, almost 30% of them reported that their company had no gloves on hand. As a result, specific teams could experience a shortage of resources as a result of these factors.

 We're concerned about how hospitals will reclaim their spirit of teamwork, mainly if they've got challenges like not having enough PP on hand or not being willing to handle the burnout and mental wellbeing that their caregivers need.

What do you think the first three steps hospital representatives can do to rekindle the spirit of collaboration?

I believe that everyone working in the healthcare field has had a challenging year. In a 100-year pandemic, none living and in nursing research has ever had to overcome challenges like the ones we've faced during the last 15 months. And the health services that I believe have performed incredibly well have made errors when navigating through all of these obstacles.

It is highly beneficial, first and foremost, to concentrate on a specific goal. From the beginning up through now, our primary goal as a health system has been to represent the citizens of Wake County and the surrounding area. And I believe that similar to Johnson & Johnson's response to the Tylenol disaster in 1982; we needed to focus early in the pandemic on what we were here to achieve. And I believe that focusing on the central objective provided them, and I think many other health services, with a direction forward through the pandemic. And, honestly, it aids in distinguishing who you are and what you're here to do.

 Next, I believe we've heard a lot about what works and what doesn't over the last year. It serves as a base for future growth and celebration. We should be proud of the teams we've put together from various disciplines, as well as the skills we've enlisted, and this offers a new base upon which to develop.

Finally, I believe we must be open and frank with the fact that people are exhausted. And it's not surprising to me that about 75% of providers claim their coworkers assisted them in any way and that there is some assistance that only a colleague can offer. You know, there are certain aspects that only another emergency room nurse will recognize or recognize when you're an emergency department nurse when you're going through the struggles back in March and April of 2020, and now until April of 2021. And I believe it is essential for us as a health system to recognize and celebrate this and surround people with the respect that a single teammate cannot.

On behalf of all my readers, as we approach the end of a daunting and turbulent 2020-2021, I want to convey my gratitude to all readers and all front-line health professionals worldwide who have contributed so much in the battle against COVID-19.

Large numbers* of physicians, nurses, and caregivers have shown bravery, humanity, stamina, and selflessness, unlike anything we've witnessed before in a year marked by what will undoubtedly be the most significant healthcare epidemic of our lifetimes. These courageous people and organizations have gone beyond and beyond, and we at Cerner have been humbled to promote their vital work.

Cerner's clients evolved and innovated to support their populations as the COVID-19 virus traveled worldwide, and experts mobilized to produce a safe and efficient vaccine. They soon set up field clinics and surge sites in cities such as London, Madrid, Dubai, Seattle, and New York in the early days of the pandemic. They introduced modern technology to maintain their forecasting software, statistical modeling, and command center dashboards.

To contain the spread of COVID-19, Cerner clients quickly increased telehealth capability and accessibility, in several instances increasing interactive appointment throughput by more than 100-fold. Cerner used data to improve the clinician experience and personalize patient treatment during these national campaigns, ensuring that customer success was never compromised.

The words "thank you" fall short of expressing our support for healthcare professionals. It doesn't make up for the lives we've lost to the epidemic, nor does it compensate for the unrelenting depression brought about by being cut off from friends and loved ones.

The pandemic has shown several of our industry's flaws, but it has also brought to light numerous ways to re-imagine the future of treatment. There are opportunities to make data-driven knowledge more available, increase the interoperable sharing of vital health data, and solve clinician burnout.

Even so, after the pandemic is finally over, front-line staff and friends, who have been reunited, will be grateful.

I hope this article will give you some clear idea about the most challenging role, i.e., occupation currently the healthcare workers are performing in COVID situation. Finally, I would like to conclude that Together, we will win this battle with all your efforts and hard work.
