Abstract
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of telemedicine has rapidly accelerated. Our orthopaedic department created a telemedicine educational program for residents using standardized patient scenarios. Training residents to use telemedicine will help them navigate through unforeseen issues that otherwise may have never been a consideration. This is not only useful for today's climate but also potentially for the duration of their careers.
