Abstract

To feel connected to a patient requires more than being in the same room.In fact, being in the same room may not be essential. Connecting with a patient or another healthcare team member requires humanism—the simple act of being human—and the deliberate acts that accompany it.For those working in telehealth, creating a bond with a patient can be a bit different but no less important or possible than in a physical room.
