The CHKD Continuing Medical Education Program is guided by the mission of Children’s Health System, to deliver excellence in quality and scope of service as we continually measure and improve our outcomes. We will identify the educational needs of pediatricians and other health care professionals within our community and provide educational opportunities which will improve their pediatric knowledge, attitudes and skills. The CHKD Continuing Medical Education Program fosters excellence in pediatric care through its diverse educational activities that focus on prevention, treatment, diagnosis, emerging technologies and procedures in pediatrics, pharmacotherapy and practice-related needs. CHKD CME activities are designed to improve the pediatric knowledge, attitudes and skills of physicians who care for children.
Specific CHKD CME activities include, but are not limited to single and multi-day conferences, community rounds and maternal newborn transport reviews. Most activities are presented in traditional lecture and case-based formats; however, the program encourages diverse presentation formats to optimally achieve activity objectives. These activities are planned and implemented in accordance with need as well as with the Essential Areas and Polices of the Medical Society of Virginia and the Standards for Commercial Support.
The target audience includes pediatricians, sub-specialists and family physicians primarily in Southeast Virginia and Northeast North Carolina. Multidisciplinary attendance is encouraged.
