Joining us is VP of Government and Community Relations for BayCare, Keri Eisenbeis, discussing Covid from the front line. We’ll also dive in to the EXCITING new opportunities arising out of the partnership between BayCare and Feeding Tampa Bay -- like home meal delivery for recovering Covid patients, and our "Food RX" program, wherein doctors will "prescribe" foods for ailing patients, and Feeding Tampa Bay will fill those prescriptions! Tune in to learn how food is medicine, and how healthy eating can not only prevent health problems, but help to cure them too!
