Root Center is hosting its first-ever Clinical Grand Rounds!

January 14, 2021

One of the core values of the Root Center for Advanced Recovery is “Embrace New Perspectives”. Continuing education and learning are a big part of it. We learn from our experiences, from each other, our colleagues, supervisors, and from specialists in our field and related areas. Our education is just beginning when we graduate from school. In clinical practice, our pursuit of learning can never stop, and it has no boundaries. It is truly rewarding to acquire new insight and to teach. 

 

For the first time, as part of the agency’s on-going staff training curriculum, Root Center is offering a clinical Grand Rounds Series. This will be a series of in-house clinical lectures covering a range of topics important to our work. The topics for presentations have been selected for this year, and we are excited to expand the range of topics and expert speakers in the years to come! We invite staff to join us in this amazing growth opportunity! Together we can share knowledge, build skills, accomplish wonderful things! Please note that Root Center’s Clinical Grand Rounds is not open to the public at this time.

Our Community Forum was a success! Burnout: More than Just Stress, was a wonderful, insightful, and at times even funny conversation about occupational and personal burnout, shifting legislature, personal coping strategies, systemic changes, the effect of burnout in children, and so much more! The Root Center is proud to offer free events like this as part of our Advanced Recovery Institute (ARI). The ARI is committed to research and training to elevate clinical care. It is our hope that by organizing these forums that we will help expand our understanding and awareness of topics that impact our communities.
