Lecture overview

Over the last few months, as the global COVID-19 pandemic has escalated, there has been an accompanying surge in information available around COVID-19. Trying to stay up to date in this rapidly changing and progressing field of healthcare is challenging, given the sheer volume of information and data available. 

To assist our colleagues in the healthcare sector, Netcare initiated the Netcare COVID-19 Lecture Series. The series is aimed at all healthcare workers of all levels and skills, with the intention of better equipping everyone to combat this pandemic. The sessions take place regularly via Zoom, with all sessions recorded and available online via Netcare’s YouTube page. All sessions are CPD accredited and completely free.
