Responding to hospital system and student curricular needs: COVID‐19 Student Service Corps

Abstract

Throughout March 2020, cases of COVID‐19 grew exponentially, and New York emerged as an epicenter of the crisis. Social distancing, shortages of personal protective equipment, and clinical care needs necessitated that students be removed from the clinical setting. A group of students, faculty members, and administrators formed to identify ways in which students could be involved in supporting the health system.
