Editor’s note: With everything going on in the health system and the world, you might be surprised to see The Bulletin. Obviously, COVID-19 communications are a priority, and important information about policies, procedures and resources is included in this newsletter. But as we focus on our patients, our duties and our areas, it’s helpful – and encouraging – to get a wider view of what our fellow employees in all departments are doing to prepare for and respond to this unprecedented situation. It is amazing to see. And while COVID-19 is foremost in our minds, it’s also important to remember that even during these most challenging times, life goes on. This might be the “new normal,” but sometimes a dose of the “old normal” can make us feel better.
