The care of children in the best of times poses unique challenges and opportunities. During times, such as the coronavirus pandemic, pediatric practices have needed to adapt to be able to provide the best care for children, and their family unit. By maintaining different office hours, utilizing social media and implementing telemedicine, pediatricians can provide quality care during this uncertain time. Use of OMT should be considered as part of the treatment of children by osteopathic doctors and encouraged during times of illness and stress.
OMT Review for the Practicing D.O. will provide an overview of osteopathic principles, diagnostic strategies, and treatment options for physicians with varying levels of osteopathic understanding. The goal is to provide participants with fundamental osteopathic knowledge that can be easily integrated into patient care and taught to medical students and residents.
