What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Boston about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"The pandemic has had a significant impact on the healthcare system in Boston. Many hospitals have had to adjust their operations to accommodate the influx of patients with COVID-19, while also providing care for other medical needs. The healthcare system has had to become more efficient in order to meet the demands of the pandemic, while also ensuring the safety of patients and staff. Telehealth services have become more widely available, allowing patients to access care from the comfort of their own homes. Additionally, many hospitals have implemented new safety protocols, such as temperature checks and mask requirements, to protect patients and staff. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, the healthcare system in Boston has been able to adapt and continue providing quality care to its patients," remarked another expat in Boston, the United States.
