Target Audience

Needs Statement

There is a critical need for education that extends beyond routine clinical experience. Residents and faculty benefit from exposure to innovative frameworks and best practices presented by national experts, especially in high-stakes clinical management, wellness and stress reduction, and health equity. Educational programming should foster cross-institutional collaboration, encourage the adoption of evidence-based protocols, and promote lifelong learning and adaptability. Additionally, training in emerging technologies, team leadership, and structured approaches to complex scenarios is essential. The Emergency Medicine Grand Rounds series is specifically designed to drive innovation within emergency care. By hosting nationally recognized speakers, the series provides access to cutting-edge practices and thought leadership that may not be readily available in routine clinical settings. This initiative enhances resident and faculty understanding of emerging trends, promotes sustainable wellness strategies, and advances equitable care delivery. Through focused, high-impact sessions, the series supports the development of a more resilient, informed, and forward-thinking emergency medicine workforce.

Educational Methods
