Emergency Medicine Grand Rounds is a weekly multidisciplinary and interprofessional conference series designed to improve a participant’s ability to practice emergency medicine by enhancing knowledge in clinical care, healthcare research, medical education, public health, and innovation implementation. We warmly welcome speakers from diverse backgrounds with knowledge in diversity, equity and inclusion as part of our residency program’s cultural competency curriculum.

Grand Rounds are presented by guest faculty from around the country. Departmental faculty, fellows, residents, and emergency department providers and staff benefit from these clinically relevant lectures and are eligible to receive CME credit for attending live sessions through the UW-Madison Interprofessional Continuing Education Partnership.

Grand Round lectures take place Thursday mornings, typically from 10:00-11:00 a.m. CST, either via Zoom or at our academic office on the UW Hospitals and Clinics medical campus. For questions, please visit ICEP’s website.

Our prehospital faculty physicians provide expert training on best practices for emergency situations you may encounter in your daily practice through the UW Health Emergency Education monthly webinar series.

Monthly webinars cover:

  • Disease diagnosis, treatment, and management of complex emergencies with major emphasis at pre-hospital level
  • Common concerns and caregiving options
  • Case studies, and interactive discussions
  • New research and developments in the most common pathologies you will observe in your daily practice

Registration is free of charge and available to health care providers. One (1) hour of continuous medical education (CME) is provided when you attend the live session. We strongly encourage participation of prehospital providers of all levels, also emergency department RNs and advanced practice providers (PAs, NPs). Physicians and students are also welcome.
