GIM Grand Rounds are comprised of lectures provided as needs-based education for physicians and primary care providers, covering topics that are relevant to today’s healthcare needs.
Given the clinical and administrative demands on primary care physicians, it can be challenging to stay current on all aspects of primary care. The GIM Grand Rounds series is a proven way to remain current on primary care trends, needs, treatments, and updates on prevention and evaluation of the latest medications. These lectures provide clinicians with new abilities and strategies which help increase their competence. They learn the latest medical information, enabling them to serve patients with the best possible care. It enhances physicians’ performance by helping them modify their practice where appropriate. Patients report tangible improvement in their overall health and outcome as seen in reviews of clinician practices.
Through Grand Rounds, GIM hopes to fulfill the following CME objectives:
