Snippet: The health crisis linked to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has forced society and hospitals in particular to adapt and reform. Teamwork between hospitals, even beyond the networks, helped them to deal with the crisis. The medical and nursing staff had to learn to work differently and differentiate urgent from non-urgent care. But the patient also had to change his/her behaviour.

Document: The health crisis linked to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has forced society and hospitals in particular to adapt and reform. Teamwork between hospitals, even beyond the networks, helped them to deal with the crisis. The medical and nursing staff had to learn to work differently and differentiate urgent from non-urgent care. But the patient also had to change his/her behaviour. Access to hospitals has been divided between a separate COVID and non-COVID route in order to avoid contamination. Telemedicine has become a daily way of communicating between doctors and patients. Telephone consultations have been set up with reimbursement by social security.
