Grand Rounds and Faculty Meetings
A departmental Grand Rounds session is scheduled on the second Tuesday of every month, except for July, October, January, and April due to Department Faculty Meetings. Each session is held virtually via Zoom and learners receive one hour of CME credit for participation.
Primary Care Update
The annual Primary Care Update, a one-day conference providing evidence-based advice in a non-commercial setting, is planned for the fall. The event will include seven hours of CME (+ one hour of ethics).
Mental Health Awareness Trainings
Free trainings are regularly offered to the public and various groups to increase mental health awareness in our local communities. Sessions are held virtually or in person and some are available in Spanish. Various topics involving mental health are explored, including childhood experiences, domestic violence, natural disasters, self-care, and substance abuse.
Clinical Research Methods
This two-day intensive course is aimed at training busy healthcare professionals, researchers, and students on the knowledge and skills necessary to understand important concepts in health research, and be able to conduct simple analysis independently using basic software.
Opioid Waiver Training
The Department of Family and Community Medicine offered a free Opioid Use Disorder Training, intended for physicians who are interested in obtaining a waiver to prescribe buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. This in-person instruction, in combination with a four-hour online session, qualifies participants to apply for the Drug Enforcement Agency waiver, while providing up to four hours of CME credit.
