· The pandemic has proven to be a big systems disruptor. It has challenged us, as health professionals, to be flexible in the way that we provide services and to rapidly adopt new practices and technologies. At the tail end of the second wave, we take time, in this session to pause and acknowledge collective efforts and to consider the new service landscape.
