Additional DOM vice chairs coordinated personal protective equipment (PPE) needs with hospital administration, provided education regarding PPE use, onboarded outpatient physicians and facilitated their inpatient electronic medical record (EMR) access and training, and created teaching modules on treatment of the acutely ill Covid patient. In addition, volunteers and locum tenens providers were rapidly onboarded and integrated into teams and schedules.13 All remaining medicine divisions and other departments were asked to identify nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), residents, and fellows eligible for deployment to the surge medical teams.	./cache/cord-029615-x498xj3m.txt	./txt/cord-029615-x498xj3m.txt
