All national courses have been virtual since 2020.
We were impressed with the openness of our participants, who included experienced oncologists and oncologic hospitalists, to learning and practicing these important communication skills in new ways. The virtual platform worked beautifully and allowed clinicians to feel safe during the drills. The community-building within the program also addressed clinician burnout, which affects so many physicians and has only been intensified by COVID.
