Your well-being is critical!

Over the last two weeks, each of our lives has been upended, dealing with remarkable disruptions to our professional and our personal lives. As a medical community, we continue to focus on the care of our patients while dealing with the uncertainty and the abundant, ever-evolving, information about the coronavirus.

Lehigh Valley Health Network has developed a Physicians-for-Physicians (P4P) Peer Support Program that assists clinicians who are experiencing stresses, hosted by our P4P Peer Support Mentors who include volunteer physicians, APCs, and other experienced clinical professionals. During this difficult time, we are implementing virtual P4P open discussion forums during three different time slots on Wednesdays throughout the month of April. We invite you to join these sessions to share any issue that is causing distress. 

Facilitators
Joseph Patruno, MD, Chief Wellness Officer, Lehigh Valley Health Network
Carmine Pellosie, DO, Chief, Division of Occupational Medicine, HealthWorks
Carolyn Lamparella, EdS, LPC, Program Director, Preferred EAP
