Virtual Care: The Way Care Was Always Meant To Be | Sarah Schenck | TEDxWilmingtonSalon

Dr. Sarah Schenck discusses how virtual care actually strengthens the doctor/patient relationship and enhances that longitudinal, trusted, continuous relationship leading to better care. Virtual Care is less about technology and devices and more about personalized, customized care that wraps around the patient. Dr. Sarah Schenck is the medical director of Virtualist Medicine for ChristianaCare’s Center for Virtual Health. A primary care physician with a track record of driving successful clinical care transformation, Dr. Schenck is an expert in delivering whole- person, patient- centered care within a team-based setting. Under Dr. Schenck’s leadership, ChristianaCare was the first health system in Delaware to earn certification as a multi-site Patient Centered Medical Home from the National Committee for Quality Assurance. Dr. Schenck also has played a significant role during the COVID-19 pandemic, and currently serves as medical director for health system’s virtual COVID-19 practice, monoclonal antibodies COVID-19 treatment program, and virtual COVID-19 recovery clinic.
