Join us Thursday, June 18th for the next Quarterly Thought Conference from the South Central Telehealth Resource Center, LearnTelehealth.org.  This webinar is part of the ongoing, collaborative National Webinar Series from the National Telehealth Resource Center consortium.

June’s telehealth-focused event features Jeffrey Pinto, BSN, CRRN. Mr. Pinto is the Clinical Services Manager for Arkansas’ TRIUMPH program which includes a healthcare-staffed call center which assists with medical management of Traumatic Brain Injury and Spinal Cord injury patients. His talk will focus on how the demand for specialty care precipitated the development of the TRIUMPH program and the services provided by the call center and program to assist clients, families and health care providers.
