Change in any health care profession can be a challenge. The hurdles are particularly steep when a hospital or medical center chooses a new medical services provider to manage the emergency department.

ApolloMD brings to the transition process a 40-year legacy of specializing in emergency care and a talented team of experts focused on core goals:

Based on an eloquent essay, an extraordinary commitment to emergency medicine, and experience gained at one of Brooklyn’s busiest emergency departments, Bilal Shaukat, DO, is the winner of ApolloMD’s 6th Annual Emergency Medicine Residency Scholarship.

ApolloMD has created the position of Patient Experience (PX) Coordinator in select partner hospital EDs to turn those stressful, difficult ED patient experiences into tolerable, manageable. and even pleasant encounters. The PX Coordinator serves as a liaison between the health care professionals who provide emergency care and the often anxious, injured, or stressed patients in the treatment and waiting rooms

In hospitals everywhere, one medical specialty has been particularly impacted by the long tail of the COVID-19 pandemic: the Emergency Department (ED). Although ambulances are no longer lining up to deliver streams of severely ill patients with COVID-19 to the ED, medical professionals who work inside the ED — and patients who visit the ED for care — continue to feel the brunt.

For treatments ranging from a simple suture to a complicated surgical abdomen, every patient wants to receive care from a competent, confident, self-assured health care professional. Those key factors – competence, confidence, and self-assurance – lie at the heart of ApolloMD’s award-winning Advanced Practice Clinician (APC) Advancement Program.
