Regularly Scheduled Conferences
The Regularly Scheduled Conferences are accredited by the North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System, which in turn is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to sponsor Continuing Medical Education for physicians. The North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System relies upon faculty participants in its CME programs to provide educational information that is objective and as free of bias as possible. In this spirit, and in accordance with the guidelines of the program sponsor, faculty participants are expected to indicate any commercial relationship that might be perceived as a real or apparent conflict of interest.
The goal of Grand Rounds is to provide continuing medical education for the attending staff, residents and guests of the North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System. Throughout the academic year prominent visiting professors in all subspecialties are invited participants.
At the conclusion of Grand Rounds, participants will:
- Obtain current information on management and techniques with emphasis on quality improvement, socio-economic and ethical issues as they relate to ophthalmology
- Be apprised of the latest technical advances to improve their knowledge and skills, and interact with fellow ophthalmologists
Cases are presented and discussed as to appropriate diagnosis and management. Participants will be informed of new advances and approaches in the diagnosis and management of ophthalmologic diseases.
Grand Rounds are held during the academic year (September through May) on Wednesday mornings between 7:30 and 9:00am in the Conference Rooms at 145 Community Drive 9the NS-LIJ HS administrative complex).
