Mayo Clinic is committed to taking care of our learners and staff as we address the COVID-19 situation. In order to help protect our communities, and out of an abundance of caution, the School of Continuous Professional Development (CPD) is suspending live courses and conferences through December 31, 2020.

At this time, CPD suggests suspending or changing delivery method for Regularly Scheduled Series (RSS) with more than 10 in-person attendees. See individual RSS sessions or any changes to dates, times and delivery methods.

DESCRIPTION
This series is held weekly on Friday, 7:30 - 8:30 a.m.

Consultants, fellows and visiting professors present a 45 minute discussion topic which is intended to be a comprehensive review after which there is a 10-15 minute period for questions.  These "state-of-the-art" lectures are directed at the faculty and fellow level.  

TARGET AUDIENCE
The audience is primarily the physicians in our division, but all members of the division, i.e. nurses, NP/PAs and allied health staff are encouraged to attend.  We advertise the Grand Rounds title and speaker name throughout the institution which allows other areas/divisions to attend if they wish.  

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon conclusion of this program, participants should be able to:

• Explain how to apply clinical practice updates to improve patient outcomes.
