For the last day of Physician Anesthesiologist Week 2021, we want to say one last THANK YOU to TeamHealth physician anesthesiologists and anesthesiologists everywhere for your magnificent work and dedication to providing high-quality care to communities nationwide. #PhysAnesWk21
To close out Physician Anesthesiologist Week, we spoke to Dr. Peter Armanious about starting a career in anesthesia at NewYork-Presbyterian Queens in Flushing, New York. His father’s hard work and sacrifice encouraged his dreams of being a physician that continued through a life-changing event in medical school. Now, he’s encouraging others to pursue their dreams in a field that he loves. #PhysAnesWk21

February is American Heart Month. Heart disease is a leading cause of death in the United States, but there are things you can do to prevent it. Small acts of self-care, like taking walks, getting quality sleep, and cooking healthy meals, help your heart. Research shows that self-care can help you keep your blood pressure in a healthy range and reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke. Later this week, we will wear red for heart health awareness and for the rest of the month, we will share information on how to take small steps to care for your heart and be aware of your risk factors.
This COVID-19 Emergency Medicine white paper from TeamHealth’s Emerging Infectious Disease Task Force summarizes the latest information and recommendations available to frontline emergency clinicians and serves as a resource to guide in the care of patients. We encourage you to read the latest COVID-19 clinician guidance for PPE, diagnosis, management, disposition, vaccines, emotional self-care and more and share with other clinical teams who may benefit.
