Annual Continuing Medical Education Event
Each year, we host an expert speaker to highlight new and cutting edge topics. It is our goal that this knowledge will enhance the care and wellbeing of our patients and community.
Summer Externship Program
Each summer, we invite an area high school graduate or college student to work closely with us. These externs gain a deeper understanding of the conduct of clinical research and the care of patients within clinical trials. They gain exposure to cardiovascular care in the inpatient and outpatient settings. These students have gone on to careers in fields such as medicine, clinical psychology, nursing, and clinical research.
CPR Training
We provide free CPR training to area non-profit organizations, including the use of Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s). Early intervention in cardiac arrest is the key to survival.
