Dr. Gregory Johnson with Good Samaritan Society

SDPB

In The Moment … December 2, 2020 Show 952 Hour 1

Since the first confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the United States, all eyes have been on what the pandemic might mean for our elders. America has seen devastating outbreaks in nursing homes and long-term care facilities. We've also seen frontline health care workers engage in extraordinary efforts to keep residents in care facilities safe from the virus. What happens now as we advance towards a vaccine? What is the toll of isolation and chronic stress on the workers, the residents, and the families of people in care facilities?

We check in today with Dr. Gregory Johnson, Chief Medical Officer with the Good Samaritan Society.
