On this episode of Infectious Dialogue, we are joined by Angella Fajardo and Aaron Hou from IPads For Patients, a student-organized initiative to fight in-patient isolation by connecting patients and their loved ones through the power of technology. The on-going COVID-19 pandemic has forced healthcare institutions around the world to respond appropriately with quick and lofty isolation protocols to limit disease spread. However, these policies have resulted in unintended social isolation and represent a real challenge for in-patient wellness.
