Off Topic: Coronavirus Community Connection and Relaxation – #HITsm Chat Topic

We’re excited to share the topic and questions for this week’s #HITsm chat happening Friday, 8/21 at Noon ET (9 AM PT). This week’s chat will be hosted by John Lynn (@techguy) from @hcittoday on the topic of “Off Topic: Coronavirus Community Connection and Relaxation“.

Life is hard.

Coronavirus and lots of other things in the world have turned everything upside down and it can be overwhelming and frustrating.

For this week’s #HITsm chat, we’re going to take a bit of a break from our regularly scheduled discussions of health IT and take a chance to connect as a community.  Join us as we discuss how COVID-19 and the coronavirus are impacting you.  It’s a time to share what you’re feeling and vent a little to a caring community if needed.  Plus, we’ll look at some of the places of optimism we see as well and recognize some of the amazing people in the community that have made these challenging times a little bit easier.

If you enjoy a nice off topic chance to connect with others in the health IT community, then you’ll enjoy this chat.  Come and share what you’re experiencing and connect with others as they share as well.  Plus, I’m sure you’re going to discover new people that will help make your life better as well.

Join us for this week’s HITsm chat, as we connect as a community.
