PRESS RELEASE
Medical and nursing students in Florida are unable to complete work in clinical settings due to the coronavirus pandemic. Many faculty members already make use of technology in lieu of clinical training, but they know it’s no substitute for the real thing.
“There really is nothing that can replace the real contact with a real patient,” said Dr. John Fogarty, dean of the Florida State University College of Medicine. “Quite frankly, reading a book and going through a case just doesn’t have the imprint on your psyche.”
