Tele-Presence 5

In times of collective uncertainty and anxiety around COVID-19, presence and connection with patients is more important than ever. In response to the challenges imposed by COVID-19, our team has adapted the original Presence 5 practices to provide evidence-based strategies for clinicians to foster meaningful connection with patients during virtual visits.

The following resources are publicly available:

  1. A 10-minute Stanford CME module describing the Tele-Presence 5 practices (see below)
  2. poster of the Tele-Presence 5 practices to foster meaningful connection with patients during virtual visits (see below)
  3. KevinMD article that describes opportunities to foster humanism in telemedicine

To stay involved, please share your #TelePresence5 practices on social media!
