Solve recently had the honor of being invited to sponsor Long Covid Grand Rounds for the University of Rochester Medical Center.
Lectures dedicated to Long Covid and related illnesses were designed to improve care in the region, with invitations extended to providers in a wide range of disciplines: internal medicine, family medicine, neurology, OB-GYN, and emergency medicine, as well as medical students.
Dr. Brayden Yellman of the Bateman Horne Center presented diagnostic and management guidance for attendees, who totaled over 300 both online and in person over three sessions.
Solve provided financial support for the event, and Solve CEO Emily Taylor co-authored with Meredith Cricco, MD, an op-ed publicizing the Grand Rounds published in the Democrat and Chronicle.
In “A ray of hope for long COVID patients,” Taylor and Cricco highlight the prevalence and impact of Long Covid and the importance of educating clinicians at the Grand Rounds to improve patient outcomes and access to care.
Emily Taylor reflected, “Solve is proud to help educate care providers. I’m encouraged by the inclusion of Long Covid in the Grand Rounds, and by the interest of attendees in learning more about Long Covid, ME/CFS, and other infection-associated chronic conditions and illnesses (IACCIs). When clinicians are well-informed and have the proper tools, they can provide the quality of care that our community deserves and make a difference in the lives of the millions who suffer.”
