Treating patients during COVID-19: What I observed

6. Support, especially from family but also institutional support, trumped other factors. The more support and structure our patients had, the better they did.

My observations may not be generalizable because I am reporting on a relatively small population size, most patients were older, and most were established patients who were likely more stable. I plan to follow up with these patients to see how the new COVID-19 world continues to affect them, and us.
